De Buena Planta

The Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week - Eater LA

"De Buena Planta, an outdoor, mostly plant-based pop-up on Abbot Kinney from the folks at The Butcher’s Daughter. The patio somehow evokes Tulum without trying too hard, with its sand-colored gravel, string lights, low-to-ground seating, and baby palm trees fanning from all four corners. The tightly curated menu offers what one might consider a taco pop-up’s greatest hits: Supporting dishes include housemade chips, smoky salsa roja, and cotija-flecked guacamole; a gluten-free quesadilla stuffed with cheese and Impossible chorizo; and a Mexican Caesar salad that honors the Tijuana restaurant namesake. The main stage act at Buena Planta, however, is “La Bomba,” a taco platter featuring a drippy potato-egg taco, an all-veg taco with spicy calabasa squash and shredded radish, a crunchy Impossible chorizo taco, and a grilled cauliflower taco with a thick swipe of chipotle crema." - Eater Staff
