Allow me share with you a place I recently discovered, thanks to my dear friend, CC. It's called Fresh Corn Grill. Since I love corn and all things fresh and grilled, it wasn't a hard sell for me. And the minute I glanced at the menu and saw all that FCG had to offer, I knew I found a winner.
FCG has been around West LA for several years now and it opened a 2nd location in WeHo last year. I suspect people love it for similar reasons I do: it offers healthy options without compromising the taste or destroying your wallet. Plus, service is quick. So if you're in Westwood or WeHo, and in need of finding a quick and delicious meal, FCG is your place.
Green Salad - mixed greens, grilled corn, and tomatoes, tossed in house vinaigrette - $6.95 |
[Huge] side of Sauteed Kale - $2.95 |
[Huge] side of Grilled Corn - $2.95 |
Sauteed Mushrooms - $2.95 |
Caprese Pasta - penne with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, parmesan, and a hint of garlic - $9.95 |
Turkey Meatloaf - with two sides - $12.50 |
Grilled Salmon Tacos - with two sides - $12.50 |
I ordered the tacos. The minute I saw my heaping plate of food, I wiped off my drool and thought of eating just two tacos and saving the last for lunch the next day. Fat chance. I cleaned my entire plate of three tacos and a side of sauteed kale and grilled corn with no trouble at all. And at the end, I didn't feel grossly full.
So basically, to sum up, FCG offers delicious, healthy, hugely-portioned meals that permits guilt-less eating. Why is this place not talked about more often? Who knows. Now, go check it out for yourself!
