"Chifa is a Cantonese-Peruvian restaurant in Eagle Rock that, against all odds, opened in late 2020. While they were takeout-only for a while, they have since reopened their truly adorable interior, as well as a back patio that’s far more conducive to big groups. The menu is inspired by the owner’s original restaurant by the same name in Lima, Peru, and features dishes like pollo a la brasa, mapo tofu, and traditional zongzi, sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf and filled with Chinese sausage, pork belly, and mushroom. Whatever you do, make sure you save room for a few black sesame cheesecake tarts at the end - they’re incredible and a perfectly savory way to end a meal here." - jess basser sanders, brant cox, brett keating
