The Best Restaurants In The San Gabriel Valley - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"The longest line at San Gabriel’s Blossom Market Hall always leads to Caribbean Gourmet. This Guyanese and Caribbean market stall has a loyal following, and after one bite of their oxtail, you’ll understand why. The slow-braised, fall-apart meat comes in a platter that weighs more than a newborn, with scoops of bean-flecked rice, caramelized plantains, and stewed cabbage that perfectly soaks up all the spiced oxtail drippings. Even if you’re just swinging through the hall for snacks rather than a full meal, make sure to stop by their pastry case to grab a few cheese rolls, Jamaican beef patties, and pineapple tarts." - cathy park, sylvio martins, brant cox, andrew ryce
