Popular Food Trends in SoCal 2020

Look out avocado toast and the infamous cronut, 2020 brings new and ever so scrumptious food trends. Whether you are a dessert lover or a savory foodie, this list of popular food trends has something for everyone. Grab a friend and try all these delicious food if you have not already!

 

 

Mochi Donut at Fill Bakeshop & Creamery

These mochi donuts has a crispy exterior with a chewy inside that makes this dessert irresistible. This popular food trend comes with flavors such as Guava Cheesecake, Matcha White, Milk and Cereal, and Strawberry Shortcake, these mochi donuts are as good as they look. Pair it with their dairy or vegan option ice cream!

 

Korea’s Famous Hot Dogs at Myungrang Hot Dog

Unlike your traditional hot dog, Korean style hot dog is stuffed with different types of fillings and then deep fried in their own special batter. What comes out is a super crispy bread like texture and ever so satisfying flavor inside. There are flavors like hot dog and cheddar, rice cake, and even squid ink batter hot dog. If you cannot decide then opt for the variety pack.

 

Egg Sando at Egg Tuck

Taking a spin on a Japanese style egg sandwich (aka egg sando), Egg Tuck uses freshly baked brioche bread along with cage free eggs. My favorite would probably be the bacon and cheese egg sandwich with their signature egg sauce and house sriracha aioli. If you are feeling a little extra, then try the Royal West which consist of a beef short rib patty, over medium egg, cheese, and grilled onions.

 

Plant Based Burgers at Monty’s Good Burgers

Another popular food trend would be the incorporation of plant based products such as the Impossible patty in burgers. If you notice, even some of the fast food chains are offering it on their menus though some suffers in the taste and freshness. However, at Monty’s Good Burgers, their tasty burgers are so good you would never know it is vegan. I love how they make almost everything in house and is all environmentally friendly. Whether you are are serious carnivore or a vegan, Monty’s makes one of the best burgers! FYI: order The Dog Pile which is actually off the Secret Menu. You will thank me!

 

Taiyaki Soft Serve at Somi Somi

Somi Somi specializes in a popular Korean dessert known as Taiyaki ( a fish-shaped waffle cone) and filling it with a creamy soft serve. Taiyaki has a crunchy semi cake like on the inside which I think gives the whole dessert great texture. You can coat the inside with choices like nutella, custard, red bean, or even cheddar. Then decide on which flavor of soft serve which includes some like ube and black sesame or milk and horchata. You can of course either just have the taiyaki without soft serve, but once you try Somi Somi you will ask where has this been all your life!
