Counter Intelligence: Where to Eat in the Real Los Angeles
by Jonathan Gold

Counter Intelligence: Where to Eat in the Real Los Angeles Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Jonathan Gold has eaten it all. Counter Intelligence collects over 200 of Gold's best restaurant discoveries--from inexpensive lunch counters you won't find on your own to the perfect undiscovered dish at a beaten-path establishment. He reveals the hidden kitchens where Los Angeles' ethnic communities feed their own, including the best of cuisine from: Argentina, Armenia, Brazil, Burma, Canton, Colombia, Cuba, Guatemala, India, Indonesia, Iran, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, the Middle East, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Peru, Thailand, Vietnam and more. (set as bulletted list?) Not to mention the perfectly prepared hamburger and Los Angeles' quintessential hot dog.

Counter Intelligence is the richest and most complete guide to eating in Los Angeles. The listings include where to find it and how much you'll pay (in many cases, not very much) with appendices that cover food types and feeding by neighborhood.

Synopsis:

Gold is a hound for the best food in all of Los Angeles. In "Counter Intelligence" he collects the best of what he has eaten across the city in an alphabetically organized guide that covers broad, deep ethnic and traditional food outlets. Ratings, pricing information and cross-references by location and food type make this book easy to use.
