"This longtime independent burger stand in East Pasadena, run by Jean and Ben Khe, turns out dishes in less than five minutes on uncrowded afternoons. Though tempting to get a traditional cheeseburger, opt for the fish burger: both the fish filet and french fries are previously frozen, but the couple have perfected the art of deep frying so that the cod comes out pillowy on the inside with a delightfully crispy exterior before being placed between mayonnaise-tartar sauced buns. Every dish is composed with love, making this spot a favorite among locals for many decades; sure, the faded signs and menu photos could use an update, but that’s part of the charm. Just shut up, order, and give the Khe’s your money. — Mona Holmes, reporter" - Eater Staff
