Jonathan Gold, Pulitzer Prize-winning food writer for the LA Weekly, joins us on Good Food every week with a restaurant suggestion. This week, he's taking us to Omar's Restaurant in San Gabriel, a Uighur halal restaurant. Jonathan likes the mutton kabobs, the meatloaf sandwich and the hand-pulled noodles. He also says they have great yogurt and creamy milk tea, which is more like a salty tea soup.
