Food & Dining


"For a quick snack u can try the entire food court on Mission and Fremont, next to Kohls. Some of the eateries include Moe's Southwestern Grill, Red Brick Pizza, Pick Up Stix and Jamba Juice."

"King Taco on Soto & Ceasar Chavez (2400 Chavez Ave, 90033) has the best taco's in LA. Otherwise you can always hit up Chano's at Main & Mission, the northwest corner of HSC (3309 N Mission Rd, 90031)"

"Saladang and Soda Jerks on Fair Oaks; Barney's, Crocodile Cafe, and Louise's Trattoria on Colorado; Rubio's on Lake Ave."

"Visit Sam's Catering Truck (near the Eastlake Lot)! I highly recommend the veggie burger and the seasoned fries."

"Jamba Juice can be found on Fair Oaks near Huntington Dr., or in Cafe '84 at the USC main campus (across the walkway from the Lyon Center)."

"And finally, use discretionary if you plan on buying lots of food from Seaver Cafeteria. Discretionary can be used for basically anything anywhere on either USC campus."

"On a budget and don't cook? Shao Mei is the answer to your concerns. Four dollars gets you more Chinese food than you can probably eat in one sitting. Find them at Garvey & Garfield and at Valley & Garfield. Open until 1am."

"Pho79 has tasty Vietnamese food at decent prices. The beef noodle soup (#26) and the Pork Vermicelli (#93) are popular selections. Find it at Garfield and Main."

"Late night and in charge of a big group of hungry friends? Noodle Planet and Noodle World -- created to be the "Asian Denny's" -- should satisfy. Diverse (I didn't say "authentic") array of Asian cuisine at decent prices. Find them on Valley between Atlantic and Garfield."

"Only have $2 for dinner and the Taco Truck has left for the day? Find a Vietnamese sandwich deli and you won't go hungry. There's one on Atlantic and Valley next to Del Taco, and another on Valley just west of Garfield."

"Cramming for an exam AND hungry? The nearest Domino's Pizza stores can be reached at (213) 746-9999 or at (213) 748-7774. The nearest Pizza Hut's are at (323) 231-8000 or at (213) 746-2900."

"Go down Zonal/Griffin until Broadway, on which you can find a McDonald's, KFC, Taco Bell, Subway, El Pollo Loco, and a Bank of America."

The Asian Pacific American Medical Student Association at the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine seeks to promote health and well-being for East Asian, South Asian, and Pacific Islander communities and individuals, as well as other populations of color, through community involvement and medical student education.

The diversity of Asian and Pacific Islander communities in Los Angeles necessitates raising awareness of and addressing unmet health needs specific to each community.
