Talk about a fun and unique meal! I’d heard rave reviews about Here’s Looking At You in Koreatown, and we finally went down to check it out when my mom was in town recently. Described as “progressive social food”, this isn’t your typical dinner spot, but rather one that pushes the boundaries and totally excels in interesting tastes and flavor combinations. This corner bistro housed in a former cheesesteak shop serves some seriously tasty food, and that’s no surprise coming from Animal-alum, chef Jonathan Whitener. From the yellow corn ribs (!?) with poblano & cotija, to the frog’s legs with salsa negra (my husband’s fave), you’re definitely in for a unique and memorable dining experience at HLAY. I highly suggest scrolling through the photos for more details about each dish, but damn, the bold flavors really impressed us all. We can’t wait to return soon, and I’m super curious to try brunch as well! The shakshuka verde and coconut waffle are definitely calling my name.
