"Silver Lake’s Needle has been a quarantine MVP for me. Against all odds, their roasted meats hold up beautifully for takeout: The chicken wings in soy glaze maintain all of their blistery skin and moist dark meat, and the pork chop bun on milk bread with spicy relish is just as good at room temperature. But, without question, my favorite thing here is the char siu, made with Peads & Barnetts’ (very fancy) Berkshire pork belly. The pork is fatty, fork-tender, and very smoky, and eating it at home means I can safely lick the honey glaze and rendered pork fat off the bottom of my plate without drawing any attention to myself. - BK" - the infatuation los angeles crew
"Needle, a tiny Cantonese restaurant with a giant green sign, serves everything from pea shoots in garlic broth to button mushrooms so good, they compelled us to change our Twitter name to “Funghi Fieri.” It's also the perfect corner spot to watch as people with curled villain mustaches and leopard print pants go marching down Sunset Blvd. All ordering is done from a tiny QR code at your table, and the covered sidewalk patio is the best spot to snack and hang out for as long as you want. We like everything we've tried at Needle, but the must-order dish is the pork shop char siu. It's grilled over charcoal right out front, glazed in honey, and then served with hot mustard to cut through the richness." - Kat Hong
