LA’s New Restaurant Openings

"The chef behind Colibrí and Rosaline has a new Peruvian concept called The Hummingbird, a colorful ceviche house in Echo Park. The barebones space is lit up fluorescent pink and has an open kitchen where you can watch staff plate various raw and hot dishes. There’s hand rolls stuffed with crab and wasabi jalapeño paste, tuna ceviche in miso-infused tigre de leche, and grilled octopus on ají amarillo hummus. The menu has a few vegan options, too, and no alcohol, but you can opt for a “totally legal” hemp-infused cocktail. We recently visited The Hummingbird and added it to the Hit List." - sylvio martins
