Wow, I’ve not heard of most of these. What do you think? Will they work?
Eater Readers Share LA’s Best Restaurant Secrets, Part 1
Last week Eater offered up a pair of VIP tickets to Saturday’s Plate by Plate. To win, we asked readers to share their best kept restaurant secrets, and rather than keep these gems to ourselves, we’ve decided to spread the love to you, dear readers. This time around, we received so many great tips that we’re breaking them up into a series of posts. Below, some of the city’s best restaurant secrets, as determined by readers. Got another undisclosed tip? Feel free to add in the comments.
1) “Everyone loves Boiling Crab, but the wait at the Koreatown location, especially for a group, can be interminable. A secret: get your order to go. It comes in the same plastic bag as they serve in the restaurant. Then, go next door to Cafe Home, where, with the purchase of drinks, the staff will gladly spread out paper table runners for you to feast on your to-go order. There is usually little to no wait at Cafe Home. You’ll see other in-the-know patrons chowing down on Boiling Crab inside. Cafe Home shares the same entrance hallway as Boiling Crab.”
