Din Tai Fung – Los Angeles Restaurants

Update: Din Tai Fung in Arcadia has now moved to Westfield Santa Anita

The Taiwanese restaurant Din Tai Fung serves up some of LA’s best dumplings. It is a very popular place and they do not take table reservations, so you will have to wait your turn  (usually there is a line all the way out on the parking lot). Upon arrival, you are handed a queue number and asked to fill in an order form, while you are waiting, so you are ready to place your order as soon as you are assigned a table.

Din Tai Fung is famous for soup dumplings, xiao long bao, stuffed with pork and/or crab along with a spoonful of soup. They are served piping hot and you eat the dumpling in one bite, so be careful not to burn your tongue.

• Din Tai Fung is in Arcadia, so if you are staying on Sunset Strip, expect a 30-45 minutes drive.

• In the same plaza, there is a Taiwanese bakery and an Asian beauty store, which is also worth a visit.

• Din Tai Fung is best for lunch since it takes a while to get there and there is not much else to do in the area.

Mitzie Mee - Sanne

Los Angeles is a city you don’t quite figure out all at once. It unfolds slowly, neighborhood by neighborhood, mile by mile. Vast and sun washed, cinematic and oddly intimate, it’s a place of constant contrast. Morning hikes in the canyons. Long lunches that stretch into late afternoon. Evenings that end by the ocean with salt in your hair and traffic humming somewhere in the distance. What I love most about LA is that it feels less like a single city and more like a collection of distinct worlds stitched together by freeways and palm trees. A strip mall might hide one of the best meals you’ll have all year. A quiet residential street can lead to a view that stops you in your tracks. The glamour is there if you look for it, but so is a relaxed, everyday rhythm that makes the city surprisingly livable. On this page, I’ve gathered my Los Angeles favorites. The restaurants I return to. The neighborhoods I linger in. The places that capture the particular mix of ambition, creativity, and laid back energy that defines the city.
