Japanese restaurant · Downtown Los Angeles

@eater

"Downtown Los Angeles has a new modern Japanese bento restaurant that is mixing Southern California ingredients with both traditional and nontraditional preparations. Located across from the former LA Times building at 1102 Lawrence Street, the newly opened Guzzu Bento-Ya comes from brothers Anthony and Len Hayashi, along with managing partner David Chen, and will officially open for service on August 24. [...] Although some of the dishes will change depending on what’s in season, the most popular bentos so far have been the Jidori chicken karaage and the kurobuta miso tonkatsu. The signature chicken karaage bento is made with ginger and garlic-marinated fried Jidori chicken thigh served with Anthony’s housemade shichimi togarashi spice blend, which he makes with 14 spices instead of the usual seven." - Kristie Hang
