"The bossam at Hangari comes in three different sizes, meaning you can get together with just a single friend or upwards of six. I like that there's the option of having just pork belly or mixing it up with pork jowl, too; both iterations are served with crisp cabbage, garlic, and jalapeños for D.I.Y. wraps as well as spicy radish kimchi."
"Get to the new Liu's Cafe in Westwood (the original location lives in Koreatown) 20 minutes before it opens at 11 a.m. Yes, you're early, but it means two things: One, you'll make the first round of seating once the doors open and thus, two, you won't have to stand on a perilously long line in blistering sidewalk heat."
"Most diners, perched at counter seats that rim the small dining room, have a little bit of sweet and savory in front of them: Taiwanese beef noodle soup to start, kaya jam toast to finish, and vice versa."
Los Angeles dining recommendations highlight two notable restaurants for weekend gatherings. Hangari Kalguksu offers bossam in three sizes with options for pork belly or pork jowl, served with crisp cabbage, garlic, jalapeños, and spicy radish kimchi. The meal includes soup, rice, and banchan, with the option to add spicy seafood kalguksu with chewy knife-cut noodles. Liu's Cafe, a new Westwood location of the original Koreatown restaurant, serves Taiwanese and Hong Kong-style cuisine including Chiayi chicken rice, cold sesame noodles with chile crisp, iced teas, and Hong Kong-style French toast. Arriving early at Liu's ensures shorter wait times and better seating availability.
