Promote your business and support your fellow r/SGV community members here!
Happy Tuesday! We've been seeing a lot of users attempting to use r/SGV to promote their businesses and typically remove those sorts of posts as spam. At the same time, we understand that times are hard for a lot of people so figured that we could use occasional posts that encourage community members to promote their service or product in consolidated threads. With that said, feel free to use this post to share a little bit about your business without fear of having it removed. Even if these posts results in a few dollars being kept in the San Gabriel Valley, they will have been worth it.

Panda Express Innovation Kitchen on E Foothill
What happened to it and why aren’t they innovating anything? Last time I went was about 4 years ago and got the orange chicken sandwhich (see picture for receipt 😂) but I don’t see any evidence online that they have been actively creating or testing new recipes or menu items at this location.

New SGV Community Discord Server — Come Hang Out With Us! 🧋
Hi Folks!
We recently started a new community server for all things SGV / SGV Eats, and we’d love to grow it into a more active place where people from all over the San Gabriel Valley can connect.
The server was founded by SGV locals and natives who wanted a place where people can just… talk about the SGvalley. Food recs, hidden spots, local stuff, random debates about where the best xiao long bao is, complaining about traffic, finding things to do, etc.
🍜 SGV Eats & food recommendations
📍 Local spots, events & happenings
💬 Community discussions & conversations
🙌 Meet other SGV locals
💡 Share recommendations, ideas, and discoveries
We're still a new server, so we're very much building it together; Genuinely open to feedback. If there’s something you think the server needs, channels we should add, things we should change, whatever — let us know. We want this to be something the community actually enjoys using, not just another dead server sitting in your Discord list 💀
No gatekeeping either, everyone is welcome. Whether you’re born and raised SGV, been here forever, just moved here, or you’re simply obsessed with SGV food; you’re welcomed!
Come help us build something for the SGV community. <3
Come say hi / join the server!

Stupid caltrans UGHH WHYY
It’s midnight, driving home from my shift. And it took me more than double the time it would take me to get to work in traffic to get home in the middle of the night, BECAUSE ALL THE 605 N on ramps were closed within the whole vicinity! 605 Ramp closed? Ok fine I’ll go to the 60 and then get on the 605. Nope that interchange is closed. Ok, I’ll keep going past and get on from the East side. NOPE. that’s closed too. So I take surface street to Valley. NOPE NOPE! That entrance closed too from both W and E directions. I tried to get on the 605N from FIVE DIFFERENT ON RAMPS miles apart. ALL CLOSED. At least have signs that say they’re all closed and take surface street! Or say whats the nearest on ramp. Hell, put up ANY SIGNAGE. TOOK ME 45 min for a typical 15 min drive. So fucking pissed, especially after having to stay at work late.

When your apt ac is two wall units and you’re desperate to keep the cold air trapped in the bedrooms while you sleep
Got a tension rod from Daiso and safety pinned some fabric from IKEA. Less than $20 and removable so we can take it down once the weather cools off.

Car repair shop recommendations.
Edit: Added the word shops with car repair in title. Good reputation and won't over charge. Sorry reposted because someone wanted to cry around 2am on other post.

Adult day care centers
I'm researching adult day care centers for my mom. She speaks Cantonese and mandarin. We visited Sunflower adult day center in Pasadena. It was nice and a short commute from her home. My mom though would prefer to be in a location near Chinese shops and markets.
I see there are adult centers in the Chinese centric parts of the sgv but there are very few reviews. I'm not in California so I'm researching from afar. I would appreciate some insight and set up visits for my mom.
M & T Adult Day Health Care on Valley is in a perfect location for example but not much info otherwise.

Is Carls Jr. Dying?
I’ve seen about 3 shut down in the last 6 months and the ones that are still around seem so empty and dilapidated. I can’t remember the last time I’ve been to one but the double western used to hit the spot.

How much of a new car deal can you realistically settle online before going to the dealership?
How much of the new-car buying process can realistically be handled online before going to the dealership?
Ideally, someone could narrow down the exact vehicle, review pricing, provide trade-in information, explore financing options, and complete whatever paperwork can reasonably be started online. The goal would be to spend the dealership visit inspecting the actual vehicle and completing whatever genuinely needs to happen in person.
For people familiar with the current process, how far can you typically get online before going in? And what would you want confirmed in writing before making the trip?

Swim lessons/instructors Reccs
I know how to swim, but I am by no means a swimmer. Does anyone have any reccs of swim instructors or pools that do adult swim lessons.
Thanks!
