I want chicken and rice and French fries for lunch.

—Leon, Pasadena

Dear Leon:

We could go to Oinkster if you want. They have good chicken and French fries, and the purple yam shakes you like. But I don’t think they have rice.

—Love, Daddy

Dear Mr. Gold:

I want rice.

—Leon, Pasadena

Dear Leon:

Noodle 101 has rice, and the cold chicken is delicious.

—Love, Daddy

Dear Mr. Gold:

I don’t want noodles, I want French fries.

—Leon, Pasadena

Dear Leon:

Most restaurants have either rice or French fries. You can’t have both.

Love, Daddy

Dear Mr. Gold:

They eat both French fries and rice in Peru. We could go to a Peruvian restaurant.

—Leon, Pasadena

Dear Leon:

You’re right. We can get the wood-roasted chicken at Lola’s Peruvian Restaurant. With French fries, and rice, and bread. 230 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale, (818) 956-5888.

—Love, Daddy

Dear Mr. Gold:

And Inka Cola too?

—Leon, Pasadena

Dear Leon:

Yes.

Love, Daddy

Peru isn't the only place on earth that's heavy on the starch. Try Puerto Rico-on the road south of Fajardo towards the Marina you'll find a great fast food Chinese eat-in/drive-thru. Every plate is served with both rice and fries. Cheers, Eileen

Qusqo, 11633 Santa Monica Blvd., West LA; 310-312-3800. Lucy Haro runs this friendly place, and serves dishes based on her Peruvian grandmother's recipes. South American star chef, Gaston Acuria and his German pastry chef wife, Ingrid, of Lima, are opening restaurants in SFO, New York and Florida, though much simpler than what they have in S.A.
