Sunday, April 16, 2006 11:14 8 CommentsAhh, in the greatest tradition of cannibalizing my own articles for other sites, here is a recent post from my site about our lunch yesterday.

Tuesday, November 29, 2005 0:06 11 CommentsSo upon hearing about an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ, my girlfriend and I ventured out to Koreatown in search of this enticing place.

“The Best Indian Cuisine in Town”–Agreed!
Sunday, July 24, 2005 9:20 7 CommentsWhen I moved from Los Feliz to Koreatown, I knew I would miss Electric Lotus and the proximity of Paru’s to my apartment. Paru’s is still relatively close by and I’ve celebrated my birthday there on the outdoor patio for the last two years, but when it comes to close-by Indian food, I’ve found [...]

Monday, June 20, 2005 10:11 2 CommentsHaving driven by, around, and through Koreatown for years now, something always caught my attention in this cultural melting pot. Pupusas, pupusas, pupuseria, pupusas, pupuseria, pupusas…words that marked storefronts on practically every block. I knew that pupusas were a type of filled corn disc from El Salvador, thanks to Jonathan Gold from the LA Weekly, [...]
