4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles: February 23 - Eater LA
"There may be no quintessentially ”2024 LA” lunch spot at the moment than Perilla, tucked behind the Heavy Water coffee shop in the thick of Chinatown. The sunny courtyard set with colorful metal tables and umbrellas is the ideal setting for Jihee Kim’s reimagined banchan and other dishes that spotlight the power of great produce, fermentation, and meticulous attention to detail. Fill your tray with as many of the clamshells of banchan you can carry — especially the seasonal stuff — but save room for crunchy kimbap, warm cod dosirak, slick soy-garlic noodles, and honestly whatever your heart desires." - Eater Staff
