“I first discovered Maneatingplant at a Yelp event for Topanga Social a few weeks ago. It was the first establishment I got to try for the evening, and sampled their amazeballs garlic noodles. It was so memorable, that tonight, a few weeks later, I made the trek in the horrid rain, all the way from my home in Marina Del Rey, just to have them again! Yes, SO good, it's worth the trip. It's a relatively simple dish, but so are simple cheese slices at some of the best pizza places in the world. The garlic noodles are bomb! This time around, I got to try the musubi. Most people know that for Hawaiians, this is a staple dish, and while this is a vegan version, got my Hawaiian stamp of approval. So good, I had to have two. I also got to try the Sichuan Steamies, essentially their mushroom dumplings. Very solid, and what I love most about them, like all the dishes here, is the guilt-free dining that will keep my cardiologist happy. Happy to keep coming back here! Also have to give a shoutout to Carlos, who took care of me tonight. He prepared everything to perfection, and even got me to discover a love for their chili oil...... I put it on everything, even the ice-cream I had later at a different place.“
