Wandering markets, eating at food stalls, sitting among locals and fellow travelers at the restaurants that embody a city. Its flavors and customs and ways of living are revealed to us over dinner or even a simple morning coffee.<\/p>\n<p>And for those of us who are lucky enough to write about food for a living, traveling with an eater\u2019s mindset gives us a deeper understanding of places we\u2019ve read about in cookbooks and novels or seen in movies. <\/p>\n<p>Each of us at L.A. Times Food keeps a running list of our favorite restaurants in some of the world\u2019s great cities \u2014 and we want to share what we know with you. The recommendations that follow are not meant to be definitive for any given place. These are personal guides by dedicated eaters to some of the places we\u2019ve loved during our wanderings around the globe.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like to share your own personal favorites with us, we\u2019d love to hear from you in the comments below. \u2014 Laurie Ochoa<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If You Stay (Giacomo Bagnara \/ For The Times) When you live in Los Angeles, there are far&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":889353,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1582,276,2451,6154,360697,287418,360696,25648,6276,2961,11804,18302,360699,224,2444,5337,313624,8463,360698,103],"class_list":["post-889352","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-ca","tag-california","tag-city","tag-custom","tag-easy-way","tag-eater","tag-food-bazaar","tag-guide","tag-l-a","tag-la","tag-list","tag-living","tag-local-dining-guide","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-times","tag-losangeles","tag-new-place","tag-restaurant","tag-wandering-market","tag-world"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116804860623686502","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/889352","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=889352"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/889352\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/889353"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=889352"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=889352"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=889352"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
