Korean food is GOOD MOOD FOOD. It’s an entire eating culture all centered around comfort and a good time. Tokki brings that concept to life BIG TIME. Their menu is Korean-based, but with a unique twist and influence from other cuisines. All dishes are meant to be shared so bring all your friends and order everything!
Read MoreTop-notch pizza, oysters, natural wine, and craft cocktails. I’m there. De La Nonna is SUCH A VIBE. It’s giving Italian/Amalfi coast summers mixed with LA backyard pool party. A mixed crowd ranging from families with small humans (it me), influencers in the wild, foodies, and date nighters.
Read MoreNortheast LA Food HypeGirl Series featuring all of my neighborhood finds starting with my FAVE find so far: Dough Box Pizza. I thought I've had all the best pizza in LA, but Dough Box pizza is like SERIOUS next level! Break that ketosis bitch and forget your low-carb diet because the dough is so good here, you cannot throw away the crust. Crispy yet perfectly soft and chewy. They offer Chicago deep dish and NY pan style - best of both worlds.
Read MoreGirl & the Goat is originally from Chicago and I first heard about it back in 2016 when I visited for the first time. It was highly recommended by locals. Unfortunately, there were no reservations available during our visit (duh) so I bookmarked it for our next trip. Welp, we haven’t gone back to Chicago since BUT thankfully Girl & the Goat came to us. So on top of the 4 months we had to wait for our reservation is another 5 years of anticipation. WORTH THE WAIT? 100% YAS.

Read MoreIn an unassuming strip mall in Encino, you’ll escape to an exceptional outdoor omakase experience - 17 courses with an optional drink pairing including sake and Japanese whisky cocktails. Bar seating aka front row seats to see the swanky sushi chefs work their nigiri magic. Limited to 8 people for each dining hour giving you an intimate dinner party feel, even though your party is safely separated from other parties with plexiglass :).

Read More“LA pizza is garbage .” Ok, we get it. The east coast may have some bomb pizza, but LA PIZZA IS NOT GARBAGE. Not anymore, at least. I’ve lived here for about 8 years now and I can confirm that LA’s pizza game has progressively gone up.
Read MoreWe made a “quarantine date night bucket list” of restaurants that offer delivery/take out. The list includes some we’ve been wanting to try for a while and other all-time-faves. I’ll be updating this post throughout the quarantine as we try them.
Read MoreThere are very little things better than a delicious bowl of ramen on a rainy day. As a kid living in Japan, I have very distinct memories of running into hole-in-the-wall ramen joints trying to escape the pouring rain. Ramen is MY comfort food. While LA doesn’t have a lot of rainy days, we do have a ton of ramen. The craze hit a few years ago and new ones just keep poppin up, but of course- I have my go-tos.
Read MoreI’m constantly being asked for recommendations on where to eat in LA and my answer is hardly ever the same. With so many restaurants and many more popping up constantly, the list of “hot spots” is constantly evolving. I wanted to make a list of LA “classics” that have consistently exceeded expectations. First edition: dinner dates. My go-to restaurants for date nights or GNO…

Thailand has been at the top of my travel bucket list for quite some time now mainly for the food. I am dying to visit the famous floating markets and enjoy Thai street food. In the meantime - so thankful for so many great and authentic Thai restaurants here in LA. A list of my faves…
Read MoreNowadays all I crave is Korean food! The thought of living anywhere more than 20 minutes away from Koreatown gives me anxiety. While I love so many restaurants in Koreatown, these 8 have consistently been my go-to's for the last few years.
Read MoreAfter the Popeye's hot chicken sandwich craze, I think KFC was feeling a little left out of the hype. An awesome attempt to steal the show and get back in America's chicken lime light - KFC is introducing a new and limited edition menu item: FRIED CHICKEN & DONUTS! And what better place to gain hype than Los Angeles.
Read MoreWe visit NYC just for pizza (amongst other debauchery) and Prince Street is ALWAYS on our list. These "square pies" are known for their delicious baby spicy pepperoni cups, but everything about it from the perfectly crispy yet soft dough/crust to the sauce is effing delicious. PSP is absolutely worthy of the hype. My mouth is watering just thinking about it and I literally just had 2 slices last night.
Read MoreSun's out, buns out. I often crave burgers and beer on warm days (which is - like - every day in LA). When we're not devouring In-N-Out animal style cheeseburgers and fries, we are for sure having a beer and burger at one of these cool spots. Enjoy!
