LAist is going on a delicious spree around LA from A to Z. This week, let's C. Today, Chosun Galbee. We remember when Chosun Galbee used to be on Western Avenue, the entrance hidden in the back, a modest street presence, sandwiched between two neighboring businesses, smaller space, and a very plain, simple interior decor. Now, the building stands alone on the corner of Olympic and a small side street Manhattan Place, screaming its...

LAist is going on a delicious spree around LA from A to Z. This week, the buzz is about B: Beechwood. You'd never guess Beechwood's real personality from the very plain, drab grey stone wall out front with a tiny sign in the corner that you can't see from the street. Stepping through the door, and immediately into a bar, it's described perfectly by the word, not swanky, but "sha-wan-kay." It has a dark...

LAist is going on a delicious spree around LA from A to Z. This week, the buzz is about the letter B. We visit Beacon in Culver City today. The lunch menu at Beacon is smartly organized, but it hints at an identity crisis because there are so many categories: small plates, large plates, soups, salads and sandwiches, noodles, sushi and sashimi. Though it is an asian cafe, some of the dishes are purely...

LAist is going on a delicious spree around LA from A to Z. Today, we finish up last week's A: All About Indian, with a trip to Annapurna, Indian Vegetarian Cuisine. Like most Indian restaurants, Annapurna has a lunch buffet. Is it odd that buffets are so common in Indian restaurants? No, it's very understandable, actually. Indian isn't a a cook-to-order cuisine like burgers, sushi, or Chinese. Curries simmer for hours, improving in flavor...

LAist is going on a delicious spree around LA. This week: A is All About Indian. However, we're in need of a quickie. At one point, LAist couldn't quite understand the analogy between pizza and sex, but finally understood the parallel as a guy's simple, straightforward logic. Yes, of course you'll take some if it's there, and like sex, pizza can never really be bad. For the ladies, the analogy is, of course, much...
