Experience and Reflection: Flustered with the amount of people at the Griffith Observatory and hungered since our last meal was just a mere hour ago (joke), Kato, Raymond, and I decided to proceed down the hill and get some grub! After consoling my fellow cousin and LA food-enthusiast, Susie, we punched in the address for Umami Burger and adventured on what would soon be one of the most memorable LA experiences that I will ever have.

The Truffle Burger was absolutely amazing. The meat was of great quality and the flavors complemented extremely well with the Truffle. Although the essence of the truffle was a bit subdued by the cheese, it provided a nice complement. The burger was simple, consisting of just a pair of hamburger buns, succulent meat patty, a slice of Italian Truffle cheese, and finished off with a Truffle Glaze.

The Tempura Battered Onion Rings were absolutely the best onion rings that I have ever tasted! The lightness and flakiness from the tempura batter was a great decision to fry the onion rings in. It make the onion rings deliciously crispy.

Umami Burger provided an absolutely delicious meal. Taken atop the Hollywood Hills and eaten with amazing friends, it was the perfect ingredient for an astonishing dinner.
