What about the Salvation Army soup kitchens??? I feel as though some members here are thinking they are too good to live high on the hog at the soup kitchens.

pinks was good, the line sucked! we were in line for almost 3 hrs when we went, but Palm's Thai is good too. If you like tortas ahogadas and youre in the Baldwin Park/West Covina area theres this place on the corner of Amar and Puente next to a pizzeria. I dont remember what its called but they got a big banner on there saying "Tortas Ahogadas estilo Guadalajara"

almost the same honestly i think there are better more authentic thai food for around the same pricing...

Amar and (officer chile way not to sure) it the street right before Azusa. (next to the Pep boys) but in that plaza theres a really good thai restaurant.
