This is the original phoenix inn although there are several new restaruants in arcadia and in irvine. this location is older and the food quality is not as great as the other places although the lemon chicken is pretty good. i recommend the irvine/tustin location.

local restaurant in a strip mall. it has all the basic korean food choices, soon do bu tofu as well as kalbi and korean bbq but the place is more like a local fast food joint but the prices are not. the side dishes are also not that great as there is not that much of a selection.

Located in Monterey Park, it's one of the larger bookstores and compares to SUP Bookstore across the street. It's a Chinese bookstore so they sell all types of Chinese books. My mom usually goes there for the cookbooks. Since I can't read Chinese, I'm not really sure how well their collection is on all types of books but I do know that if you can't find it here, the sales people can usually direct you to a place where you can find it.

This place sells exclusively accessories and you will find anything from hats and scarves to evening wear and necklaces and earrings. It's a tiny little store but they have an extensive collection of items. It's very affordable but again they have a no return policy, probably because most of the items that you would buy here you would wear to a special occassion. They also have people monitoring you because of the high likelihood of shoplifiting.

Anna's nails has been in Monterey Park for about ten years and they do a decent job for their pedicures. I have never gotten a manicure from them before so I couldn't tell you. There are at least 5 other nail shops all within walking distance from this place so I would not recommend Anna's Nails over the other ones. The location is kind of small so the smell of nail polish is pretty strong in this place. The price of course is not bad but most of the other places are about the same as well.

Focus Plaza is a multilevel shopping department store that rents out spaces to various vendors and they sell items from clothing to furniture. Think Asian Sears. On the bottom floor they have a gift shop that sells little trinkets and car accessories and they have a huge collection of pillows and stuffed animals. The store is a little bit on the pricey end but some of the stuff on sale isn't bad. I don't think they have a return policy so if you buy it you will keep it.

This little boutique sells all brand name clothing such as Guess, Diesel, DKNY, Paul Frank and other clothing for young women and young men. They have sales on some of the items but for the most part I would say you are better off at getting your clothes from a department store because the policy is better and the prices are comparable. I have walked into this store more than a dozen times and I think I have only made a purchase once.
