Long ago and far away, I was a server and bartender in the restaurant industry. During my years in that industry I discovered that often the best items on the menu were not necessarily the most popular selling items. People came in, knowing what they wanted, and stuck to their favorites.
Every now and then I would get the chance to recommend items, and my customers were often surprised by my selections, and appreciative of the fact that I brought them delicious food that they never would have thought to try. This is how Ya Gotta Try This was born. Not only did I know what was good at my restaurant, but because I was adventurous when I went out to eat, I learned about the secret items on other menus that should not be passed up.
This whole blog is dedicated to finding the eats that are overlooked, or finding the “specialties” at restaurants in Burbank that should be experienced at least once. Of course, it’s all a matter of taste, and I don’t claim to be an aficionado on food…however, I will make the claim that anything I write about tickled my taste buds enough for me to take the time to write about them in this blog.
I hope you enjoy my selections, but I also hope that you give them a try and let me know if you disagree. I’m always on the hunt for the next great meal, and I’m always open to suggestions.
Bon Appetite,
