Roubo’s Place: Why Have You Been Hiding All This Time?
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve driven through the intersection of Hollywood and La Brea, home to the gigantic Raffallo’s Pizza sign (you know it, even if you don’t know it.) Never once did I think to myself, “gee, I wonder if there’s some good food tucked away behind that sign.” I’m sure I’ve looked into the strip mall as I headed south on La Brea from my old apartment on Franklin (how could I not, right?) But it clearly didn’t register… because even though I’ve probably driven by Roubo’s Place a trillion times, the first time my brain actually saw or heard about Roubo’s Place was in this Squid Ink food fight, which had their borscht beating out a tom yum soup from Yai in Thai town.
Cheap Russian food? In Hollywood? With an under $10 lunch special? Yes please.
