This review is from: Eat 2010 Los Angeles: The Food Lover's Guide to Los Angeles (Eat Los Angeles: The Food Lovers Guide to Los Angeles) (Paperback)

We loved the first edition and now love this one even more! Quick and easy facts for great eats, no matter what part of town you live in. Plus it covers all those hip places that you only ever hear about later - wonderful little specialty stores and suppliers. Want a "local" gift? It doesn't get more local than this -- written and published by L.A. folks and featuring all local (non-chain) restaurants and shops.

This book gives thorough coverage of all the best things of food-related interest in the L.A. area, from modest to upscale. What sets it apart is that it includes those wonderful little restaurants and local finds that are so often missing from other major restaurant guides. If you like to follow food blogs and such, this book includes all of the places most loved and puts them together in a book that is well organized and easy to use. It is grouped by neighborhood - important in a city this big and also by categories so you can find specialty grocers, wine stores and more. I think this is a fabulous book to have if you love food.
