It’s a tie between the brilliant Hemings & Hercules dinner series that’s led by chef Martin Draluck and held at Post & Beam in Baldwin Hills, and Hansei, from chef Chris Ono at the Japanese American Cultural & Community Center. Both multi-course meals are a must for anyone with an interest in food origins and history—the first is a deep dive into the heritage of American food and the role of enslaved African Americans in pioneering some of our most beloved dishes, while the latter focuses squarely on LA’s Japanese food and culture, reminding guests how integral and influential it is within the city’s larger culinary scene.
