Happy birthday!
I write this post to commemorate three important events this past week: 1) the birth of Sara and Tim’s daughter (Evie, when you need a sketchy uncle to buy you wine coolers for your house party, hit me up); 2) Charlie Sheen’s amazing rants that ended up derailing Two and a Half Men for the rest of the season; and 3) the discovery of the most amazing Korean bbq pork ribs ever.
Congrats, former We-Eat-La contributors!! You now have a start to a truly wonderful legacy and imprint in this world, while I have this damn blog. Crap. Doesn’t seem even at all.
The elation is tempered by the sad realization that Charlie Sheen’s antics have branded him as another anti-Semitic alcoholic (see Gibson, Mel) who has enjoyed unparalleled success in Hollywood. Despite it all, I have to admit I loved the rants overall. My favs:
“I’m an F-18 bro and I will destroy you in the air”
“I am special and will never be one of you” - referring to AA members.
“If I bring up these turds, these losers, there’s no reason to bring them back to the fold because I have real fame and they have nothing” - referring to women he sleeps with.
I simply…cannot…process…such….awesomeness. Need…pork…products. And where is the best place to get over post-2.5 Men despondency? HAM JI PARK. This place, hands down, has the best pork ribs in Los Angeles. Simply tremendous. Their other specialty item is the pork neck soup with potato. Those are the only items you need to order for a comfort-food extravaganza. You want soon dubu or traditional shortrib Korean BBQ? You know where to go. You want pork ribs and amazing pork stew? Come no further than Ham Ji Park. I hear there is an offshoot location on Pico, but come to the one in K-town for the best experience.
ADDENDUM: They have a buy-2-large-Hite-beers-get-the-3rd-for-a-penny special!
Ham Ji Park, 3407 6th Street, Los Angeles, CA 90020.
