The Best Places To Eat And Drink In Historic Filipinotown - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"In one of the most ambitious crossovers of all time (second only to when LeVar Burton visited Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood), The Park’s Finest marries the flavors of the Philippines with the BBQ techniques of the American South. Previously a backyard catering company in Echo Park, this comfy spot on Beverly Blvd., now serves dishes you can’t get anywhere else in Los Angeles, such as smoked beef top-round that comes stewed in a coconut-cream sauce and infused with vinegar, and their cornbread which is baked on banana leaves and incorporates elements of Filipino bibingka, or traditional rice cake. Plus they’ve got the best deal in town - once a week, for just $13, you can order the “Worker’s Wednesday” meal, a loaded box filled with pulled pork, BBQ chicken, hot links, coconut beef, veggies, and cornbread, all served over a bed of rice." - kat hong
