While I was waiting for Tina to fly in, I went for dinner at Best Friend, which is a hip Korean-Mexican restaurant by celebrity chef Roy Choi.
When you walk in, you first enter a section that looks like a retro bodega/convenience store with shelves stocked with nostalgic snacks, drinks, and colorful products, setting a casual and playful tone.
Inside the main dining area, the decor has more of a party vibe and the mix of street art, murals, and funky lighting gives the space a cool, urban vibe.
The food is really good, and Best Friend feels like party on a Saturday night, so even though it was just me, myself & I, and even though it wasn’t Saturday, I had a great time at my seat in the bar, chatting along with the bartenders, and drinking frosé. Don’t miss the Street Corn!
