They were just sitting under heat lamps, but still delish -- now I really wish I got a crab bento!H.

The Torrance location fried the croquettes in the booth? In Costa Mesa they brought it out from the back so they weren't fresh and hot. =*(<BR/><BR/>http://www.kats9lives.com/2008/09/part-i-of-hokkaido-fair.htmlKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12720256376966164525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35835685.post-9268471821026731662008-09-16T12:16:00.000-07:002008-09-16T12:16:00.000-07:00Ila, let me know if you're going on a weekend....<B>Ila</B>, let me know if you're going on a weekend. More dishes (and desserts!) to taste & split ;) Did I mention I have a sweet tooth?<BR/><BR/><B>Matt</B>, I only go to LA Mill occasionally, so can't really gauge if it was better or worse over the past year. But I am INFINITELY disappointed that they took out their dessert tasting option (but the manager said it may get restored with their next menu rotation -- crossing fingers and everything else on that)H.
