Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Classic French dip

    • Rinshin on November 19, 2016

      Overnight smear over beef surface really makes this come alive in flavor. Like the recipe, I used cheaper cut of beef - chuck blade. The low and slow in the oven really works in french dip style roasts. The only quibble I had was although I had a pan of water under the meat to catch all the juices to make the dip part ie au jus, the roast did not release any juice......well, perhaps that was a good thing because the roast was most tender roast I've had in a long time. I cooked it to 136F and it was perfect medium rare. Made the au jus from bottled french dip and placed the cooked beef in it overnight to firm up. I had no problem slicing into very, very thin slices using my knife and the au jus picked up all the flavor from the meat. Wonderful recipe.

Publishers Text

In Lucky Peach’s first-ever destination issue, we explore the people, places, and foods that make Los Angeles one of the best places to eat in the world.

There are profiles of the personalities who have shaped the past, present, and future of LA dining: Nancy Silverton, the founder of La Brea Bakery who now runs the Mozza empire; Jazz Singsanong and Tui Sungkamee, the proprietors of Jitlada, a mind-meltingly great restaurant in a strip-mall restaurant in Thai Town; and Jon Shook, Vinny Dotolo, and Ludo Lefebvre, who are building a modern-day Los Angeles restaurant dynasty. Lucas Peterson explores the challenges street vendors face through the story of Caridad Vasquez, the last vendor left on Breed Street; Zan Romanoff checks in with Compton’s own Ron Finley, a self-described “urban gangsta gardener.”

Of course, there is plenty of food, and where to go to eat it: Walter Green taste-tests his way through the healthy-eating world of shakes and juices; Gillian Ferguson hand picks where to shop at the Santa Monica farmers’ market; Ed Ruscha and Eve Babitz concur on where to eat steak. And for those of us far from the sunny streets of LA, we have recipes from Seongbuk-dong, Guelaguetza, Guerrilla Tacos, Mian, and more, to bring the best of the city into your own home.
