.., meet Whittier's Uptown hero!…read more My experience here was from 6/26/26 & it did not disappoint. Though I've been to Uptown Provisions twice before to support my friend Andrew M, as well as my other friend Andrew P. with Satori Coffee Project, this was my actual visit where I finally ate! Third times the charm! Tucked nicely into a Penn St. neighborhood, Uptown Provisions can easily be spotted by the loyal patrons waiting/dining outside. May the street parking gods be kind to you as they always provide me with a spot nearby. Knowing what I already wanted from doing my menu homework the night prior, I was practically drooling on my way in. Greeted by a great staff & friendly fellow patrons, I felt right at home. I went with the "Tom's Way" sandwich. Dedicated to one of their favorite customers, it's a crossover between an egg sandwich & a pastrami. It was perfect! Chef Aaron describes his sandos as the perfect West Coast sandwich, & that I can totally agree with. Tom's Way provided me with a robust sandwich blend that never knew I needed until now. Each component's flavor profile blended together nicely. I'm usually hit or miss with rye bread, but this rye hit the mark & held the ship together. The eggs were made with care & prepared in a way I've never tasted before, very delicious. Pastrami was tender, pickled onions provided the bitter tangy component while the broccoli slaw became the soothing blanket that nestled every flavor together. I absolutely loved my sandwich. They post a 20 minute wait time but I got mine in 15. Great things come to those who wait. They do not have a public bathroom so plan your visit accordingly. They have a few counter seats inside with plenty more outdoor seating in front with friendly locals chatting it up. Don't be shy with the napkins. Thank you Uptown Provisions for a great experience, I shall return!

From the moment you walk in, the whole vibe hits you--the moody, neon-lit ambiance sets the tone perfectly. It feels elevated, a little edgy, and honestly just the kind of spot you want to spend your night at. The music is curated so well. Not too loud, not too mellow--just the right balance where you can vibe, have a conversation, and still feel the energy of the room. You can tell they actually care about the experience, not just throwing a playlist together. Now let's talk about the drinks... because that's really where they shine. Every cocktail feels intentional and crafted with care. You can taste the quality immediately--nothing watered down, nothing basic. They have a really cool mix of classic cocktails and modern twists, and even the familiar drinks feel elevated. It's the kind of place where you want to try something new every round because you trust the bartenders know exactly what they're doing. Service was on point too. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain drinks and made great recommendations, which made the whole experience even better. I came in not knowing what to expect, and left already planning my next visit. If you're in Uptown Whittier and looking for a spot with great energy, amazing cocktails, and a full vibe--The Vandalist is it. Thank me later

Also when i poured the hot water over the granules it liked bubbled and foam'd really good. I thought to myself thats really weird and still drank it. The bubbles and foam went away quickly though. Then i meditated on the experience for like a month and waited to see maybe i was detoxing and mayb my body would want more but nope. Throwing it out eventually. Wanted to return it so then can try it themselves but havent had any time whatsoever. I travel for work. Might call them later though but one step at a time for this crazy life i have. & I eat, juice etc with a lot of ginger 24/7. Even the hyssop ginger tulsi mix never broke me out. The tulsi fennel shroom powder & ashwagandha was good though. Definitely saw benefits with those. Didnt have time to call or notify but just wanted to give a heads up. Btw u might want to call so they have your order ready or youll have to wait like 18mins. It takes a while fyi. Paid like $65 for everything bank in january for everything mentioned fyi. Paid card. Kind of cold in there and dark. Definitely warehouse vibes

[Review #294] 2018 Yelp 100 Challenge (59/100)…read more During this visit to Westwood Farmer's Market, Zen's Tea House caught my attention with samples. Charismatic salesman, Arturo, ran through his spiel of the available teas/drinks, touting all the health benefits of each. Hmmm... I'm a bit skeptical but I also grew up drinking my mom's brews (though I'm not sure if I benefited health-wise of her tonics). ;-) Golden Milk ("high quality" blend of turmeric, Vietnamese cinnamon, & pure ginger) caught my attention because of the health benefits of turmeric & ginger... though I use both for cooking (turmeric for curries & ginger for veggies), not to drink. :-O I was a little concerned about tasting turmeric since it's often used in Indian curries. Since their samples were blended with vanilla almond milk, the milk masks some of that turmeric & ginger pungency. In fact, it was quite smooth & tasty! =) Arturo touted the golden milk's benefits such as digestive discomfort, anti-inflammation, pain relief, cardiovascular health, weight loss, etc. I suffer from joint pain/discomfort due to old age, added weight, etc. so I'm hoping this miracle milk will ease some of that. He seems confident that I will be returning soon... well, let's wait & see. I plan to taste a daily dose for 2 weeks to see if there's any difference, & let you know in a follow-up review. According to their website, turmeric is "famous for anti-inflammatory & detoxifying properties, wonder remedy for injuries, joint pain, & toxin build-up." Vietnamese cinnamon is generally safe when used in amounts commonly found in foods, according to MedlinePlus. Cassia varieties of cinnamon -- including Vietnamese cinnamon -- contain significant amounts of coumarin, which is linked to potential liver damage. :-O So if you have liver disease, it is recommended to avoid dietary supplements containing cassia cinnamon, but using cinnamon for seasoning should be fine. When using herbs or supplements, it's best to talk with your doctor before consumption. Well, it's been a couple of days & I have yet to notice a difference... too soon to tell. But I do enjoy my daily cup of Golden Milk each morning to start my day. :-)
