I can say I was in those lines at the Brigg in Venice waiting for a Kogi Taco! Still get Roy’s food and been to his Vegas restaurant. Yummmmmy. Great video!
I vaguely recall an old History Channel show called "American Eats". You could tell it was produced by New Yorkers, because the only culinary creation they gave LA credit for was the fortune cookie. They flat out said the French dip sandwich was invented in Chicago!
Korean Mexican food, including the Korean taco, was invented in the 1980s in L.A.'s Korea Town, home of the Roof Koreans during the Rodney King riots. The guy in the video is way too young to have invented the Korean taco, plus the guys that really invented it weren't chefs, they were middle aged guys running hole-in-the-wall fast food joints in Korea Town strip malls. I know because I was there. It's where I grew up.
That’s his claim. But the fortune cookie is actually made first in San Francisco. The cookies themselves are a Japanese treat that predates both the sf and la claims. However, the legal issue was settle in 1983, and thus decided that the origins of the “fortune” cookies came from Benkyodo in San Francisco.
A French dip is really an Italian beef sandwich which they've been making those in New York since the 1800s the only difference I believe the French tip doesn't have onions the Italian beef sandwich does
@@CoolJay77 yup in New York you can ask for a wet or non wet it can be served with a really dark brown gravy dipped in au jus sauce like I said the only difference between the Californian one and the New York one the New York Italian beef comes with onions the Californian one does not but they've been serving the New York one since 1820 so that's one food that wasn't invented in California they just basically took an Italian Roast Beef without the onions that's all
@@thezodiacguru-fl3eq That is interesting since every reference that I see online, including Britannica attributes it to Cole's and Philippe. Am I right in guessing the sandwich is not called French Dip in NY? At Philippe, they braise the meats in way too much liquid, sort of tastes like boiled meat which I don't care for.
@@CoolJay77 yeah you don't want that you're supposed to bake the roast beef in its own juices anywhere from 6 to 12 hours add a low temperature if you do it at a high temperature you can get a boiled taste but you're not supposed to do it at a high temperature that's a mistake a lot of people make if you want a hell of an experience go to New York City John's deli ask for a wet roast beef but it's just as good if not better not dipped the brown gravy on the side also is another breed you can also order it on the sandwich it is amazing it's hard to explain better than au jus sauce

Damn landlords keep trying to kill off historic restaurants in LA.
They already got rid of the Original Suehiro Cafe in Little Tokyo.
The metro is tearing out 4 historic buildings in Hollywood. One was a movie house.
Very cool!
Some incredible creations.
Now you're making me hungry...

Great video!
Doritos were invented at the Casa de Fritos restaurant (now Rancho Del Zocalo) in early 1960's Disneyland.

The Italian beef sandwich in Chicago is nothing like a French dip sandwich.
Great video. I love Cobb salads. What about chicken and waffles?
you forgot about the "venice beach special"..the first thing you need to do is find a cvs bag filled up with fresh poop
We used to have a 1959 paperback Webster's College Dictionary for studies and one of the "New words and phrases" in the back was "cheeseburger"! Haha!
Yes that this good to know!

Don't forget the "Dirty Sanchez"
Korean Tacos? When you have King's and Tito's around?
Especially Tito's
They don't have bulgogi

I thought they were Chinese fortunes, not Japanese

the French dip (the dip itself) is the main contribution LA made to the sandwich I believe
Did they dip the whole sandwich in au jus?

The Brown Derby? Could there be a less appealing name. That sounds terrible. The sounds like what happens after a night of Mexican food and ice cream.
A derby is a hat. That's why the restaurant is shaped like one.
Ptomaine Tommy's does not sound appetizing at all
Fortune cookie was first created in SF, not LA. Based on a Japanese variant.
You omitted the Oki Dog.
Pretty sure Mexican food was invented in Los Angeles too.
Luckily, you don't actually have to go to L.A. to get these foods.
It's not that bad.
That's right...stay in your boring city
These were basically things that were not invented in the US but ranamed for already existing things minus maybe the korean taco.
Where was the French Dip invented, for instance?
@@CoolJay77 well the dip part might be from LA but sandwiches are not. America can't claim the taco because they put sour cream in it.
You forgot mochi ice cream
Gross.
Where did you come up with that one? I tend to think the whole nation of Japan would disagree with you.
@@gregengel1616 Local mochi shop Mikawaya invented it in the 90s
