Go to LAX Airport

Go to LAX airport
From 105 Freeway to CA-1 N/S Sepulveda Blvd, you can take the 2nd inner lane to turn into Sepulveda Blvd. No need to take inner most lane to turn into Sepulveda Blvd. The inner most lane will split into two lanes along the way. That becomes total 3 lanes. Then, change the lane to take the middle lane.

Just go the middle lane all the way (through traffic light and tunnel) following LAX Airport sign and will end up with two lanes. You will see "Arriving Flights" and "Departing Flights". Both two lanes can go to departure level. Only left lane can go down to Arrival level. Parking at arrival level is better because elevator in parking structure is not always working. Cross the street at arrival and go up with elevator inside airport.

LAX has two levels. Arrival level is the lower level and Departure floor is the upper level.

Departure Level:
Just follow the traffic but left lane all the way in departure level will lead to nearest parking structure. Change the lane to get out of nearest parking structure lane. Tom Bradley Terminal is at the end of the world way. Its parking structure is "P3" and can get in from the front of Tom Bradley Terminal. Both "P3" or "P4" parking structure can be used for Tom Bradley Terminal. 
 

Arrival Level:
If you go down to arrival level, you will arrive in the right most lane of World ways. Right most lane has all the "stop and go" vehicles. You better change to left most lane which is closer to parking structure. You can either turn into "P3" or "P4" parking structure for Tom Bradley Terminal.

Leaving LAX
Just follow GPS route and always take the middle lane. Sometimes, it will become 4 lanes. Then, become 3 lanes again. So, take the middle lane again.   Take the CA-1 north & south route as shown. *** Take a slight right turn and look for 105 East ***.

Note: Above notes are created for people who go to LAX once in a while. Due to traffic, constructions and other unforeseen events, the driving route might change. Follow your GPS instructions. Have a safe drive!!

Best Moist Chocolate Cake

 Last weekend, I baked chocolate again with different recipe. My uncle invited the monks to his place and I volunteered to bring the cakes. I just baked double chocolate cake 2 days ago so I wanted to try the different recipe. I have found "best most moist chocolate cake" recipe a year ago and have not tried yet because it uses the store bought cake mix. I remembered I bought Betty Crocker devil food chocolate cake mix during Christmas holidays and wanted to make use of it. Coincidentally, I also bought jello chocolate pudding mix a week ago at Walmart.  Now is time to utilize all these ready mixes.

Banana Cake

After seeing the banana cake in My Favorite Place in Little Pigeonhole blog, I want to bake banana cake for Sayadaw as I am going to his place today. That banana cake looks delicious and the appearance is similar to popular cake we had in Burma. Although I want to try that recipe, Sayadaw likes the texture of chiffon cake. I should have asked her how was the texture of the cake. It was too late and I used the old recipe I have. I just ask her about texture and I will bake it for Sayadaw next time if  the texture is delicate and soft.

Double Chocolate Cake

Until now I could not make good chocolate cake. I feel something is missing in the cake like not very chocolaty or not sweet or etc. Today, I am looking for delicious chocolaty cake online. I found "Finding the best Chocolate Cake recipe" thread in eGullet Forum and read it through 3 hours, including taking notes down. I have finally listed all tested recipes by professional or non professional bakers in that thread. I am going to try Double Chocolate Cake tomorrow. Stay tune.

Japanese Vegetable Curry

I used to have the curry when I was in Singapore. Here, I did not have a chance to try the decent curry dish. I tried to make myself the curry like fish head curry , vegetable curry and Japanese curry poured on the rice. To tell the truth, none of them succeeded. Therefore, I gave up until now. Recently, I was looking for the perfect chocolate cake recipe and accidentally found this Japanese beef curry recipe on JustHungry website. I did visited this website before but I always have hard time finding the recipes I want. So, I only go to the site when search links bring me there. 

Buttermilk Cupcakes, Chocolate Cupcakes and Mocha Cupcakes for My Niece, Sofie's Birthday

My niece, sofie celebrated her birthday party at school last Friday. I volunteered to do the cupcakes for her school birthday party. This was my second assignment and wanted to try the new cupcake recipes instead. So I looked  through Mathasteward website and decided to do yellow buttermilk cupcake. I could not make a good chocolate cake so far, hence, I wanted to do chocolate cupcake too. I think the chocolate bar/chips I used is not good enough to give best flavor. I wanted to add another flavor so include the mocha cupcake.
