On Sunday morning, when I left my dorm to go get lunch, I saw a friend longboarding back carrying a soda in a yellow cup in his right hand and a bag in his left. The soda cup, I recognized quickly, was from Which Wich, a sandwhich chain that recently opened a location on Lake Avenue.

Getting to Which Which is easy!

I personally enjoy getting the humus sandwhich with:
- whole wheat bread
- blue cheese
- sliced hard boiled egg
- sriracha
- spinach
- cucumber
- bell peppers
- sauerkraut
- jalapenos
- tomatoes
- extra garlic
- pepper
The goal is to include as many ingredients known for their bad-breath causing properties as possible. Kidding.
I really like strong food! Give me the sour and the spicy! The key with Which Wich is to order ahead using their online ordering form because the line can be long sometimes. All in all, this chain is definitely not a Subway knock-off.
We’ve all heard that the stomach is the fastest way to someone’s heart^. I never fully understood this until I got to college. While Caltech Dining Services (CDS) does its best to diversify the lunch and dinner menus, sometimes nothing can quite fulfill the craving for your mom’s home cooking. Having grown up in between Venezuela and Texas, home cooking for me looks like arepas, tacos, and brisket (among other things). Thankfully, Caltech’s location, just outside vibrant LA, makes attempts to find close seconds (to my mom’s cooking) easy and exciting. Often, I don’t even have to venture more than a mile or two from campus to find reliable favorites. Here are just a few within walking distance:
On May 8, the Washington Nationals came to Los Angeles Angels for a lovely Mother’s Day Game. I, being a D.C. native and avid Nationals fan, of course had to attend– the Nationals play the Angels very rarely because they play in different leagues and on opposite coasts. My dad and I have a goal of going to all 30 Major League Baseball stadiums, and we had to take advantage of our home team being in L.A., so my mom and dad both flew out for the weekend.
