San Gabriel Valley
About
The San Gabriel Valley ('the 626') east of LA takes in cities like Alhambra, Monterey Park, San Gabriel, Rosemead and Arcadia, and has one of the largest Chinese and Asian American populations in the US. Its density of Chinese, Taiwanese and Vietnamese restaurants and boba shops pulls people from all over SoCal. The cities are spread out, so a car helps.
Jasmine says
Some people say LA's best Asian food is in K-Town.
People from the SGV just smile.
This is salvation for a Taiwanese stomach:
dim sum, beef noodle soup, hot pot, boba,
and the eternal line at Din Tai Fung.
My advice:
don't plan sights,
hand the whole half day over to eating.
