The Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week: August 25 | Eater LA

"I have a running list of restaurants to take out-of-towners in Los Angeles, and the new Baekjeong on Eighth Street is a recent addition to my go-tos that is sure to stick around. The expansive room is easy for groups, with plenty of tables that comfortably seat more than four, and a menu designed for sharing. The simplest move is one of the combinations — beef, pork, or a mix — where a large easily feeds four or five and includes a choice of doenjang or kimchi jjigae, plus steamed egg, corn cheese, and plenty of banchan. Meat quality is great across the board and portions are, as expected, generous; if you’re going on a weekend, aim for lunch or an early dinner because it gets busy later on." - Eater Staff
