http://www.farmersmarketbars.com/wine-beer-bar.htm Farmer's Market's old-timey ambiance is made all the better with a beer buzz, and regulars at these two adjacent bars know this only too well. You can fill up on domestic brewskies and wines at 326, and more exotic fare at EB's, but the patio next to both is where you'll want to linger regardless of your poison. A chill sipper's oasis from the tourist-, family- and senior-packed chaos of other outdoor dining areas here at 3rd and Fairfax (not to mention the shopoholic swirl of The Grove), 326 and EB's do get lively during Happy Hour and during its holiday-themed parties, karaoke nights and band showcases. Check website for schedule. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.cafebrassmonkey.com This small karaoke bar fills up to the brim after 10. A wide selection of oldies and modern songs give singers a range of options. Wait time to sing can get extremely long, but sitting in the audience is like being a judge on American Idol some have a little too much liquid courage that probably shouldn't. Try the Funky Monkey made with watermelon pucker, vodka and orange juice. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
If you've never noticed the Cindy Club before, it might be because it sits behind a couple of bushy trees on a humdrum stretch of Beverly Boulevard that's not quite Koreatown, not quite East Hollywood. Or maybe it's because owner Nongnuch "Candy" Phimmasone wants it that way. Cindy Club is a classic hostess bar, a largely cultural affair that connects lonely businessmen and low-key locals with bubbly, chatty women that certainly seem interested in you, but are likely eyeing your wallet. Not that this is an expensive hostess bar; the $8 beers and sub-$10 sakes (no hard alcohol is served) are a fraction of what patrons pay elsewhere in Koreatown. If anything, the dingy but expansive space is oddly comfortable, with plates of simple Thai food emerging from the kitchen just long enough to keep you in your $25-an-hour booth.

http://www.elcaseriola.com At El Caserio, one of the few Ecuadoran kitchens in Los Angeles, you spoon the incendiary chile sauce aji over puffy white-cheese empanadas, the mashed-potato pancakes called llapingachos, or fresh-corn humitas, over fried green plantains or an already spicy goat stew. If you are of a mind to, you can also use the aji to spice up the penne alla vodka, spaghetti with pesto or any of the other Italian pastas that make up a huge chunk of the menu here. To wash it down, there’s Chianti, Ecuadoran beer or the delicious, peculiar juice of the Andean mountain blackberry mora, which tastes like new wine. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.theelrey.com Located on the Miracle Mile in the Mid-Wilshire district, the El Rey is indeed something of an architectural miracle. Designed by the noted architect Clifford A. Balch in 1936, the art deco venue boasts a Streamline Moderne design, with sleek contours and a classically elegant exterior and interior. For more than 60 years, it was used mainly as a movie theater, but in 1994 it was reconfigured as a live-music concert hall. Since then, the room, which holds about 700 people, has hosted such diverse musicians as Iggy Pop, Neko Case, Radio Birdman, Wanda Jackson & Jack White, Buzzcocks, the Dresden Dolls, Wire, Emmylou Harris, Mission of Burma and the Avengers. An upstairs VIP balcony looks down over the grand ballroom, which is sided by plush red walls and illuminated by several gigantic glass chandeliers. The all-ages venue usually features standing-room admission, with a few booths located along the sides. The ballroom has a full bar, and another full bar is based in the venue's fancy art deco lobby, which includes a dramatic staircase that leads to the balcony. Street parking, plus paid parking in a lot across the street. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
The full name is actually just Frank n Hank, not Frank and Hank's, as one might assume, and it's as divey as its lack of possessives might make lead you to believe. Within feet of other Koreatown fixtures, such as Orchid, where wealthy Westsiders pay dearly for table service and private karaoke rooms, Frank n Hank is the opposite: unpretentious and cheap. Head here for a post-karaoke cooldown and get tanked for less than $20. Inside, a simple row of barstools, a pool table and a juke box fill out a room smaller than your average studio apartment. The bar also features regulars who seem too comfortable not to have been coming here for many years, and the female proprietor, Snow, who's at her post every night of the week, seems to grudgingly accept her symbiotic relationship with them. Perhaps because of this large contingency of loyal but barely paying customers, she is extremely friendly to the young and solvent-looking. Her good cheer, the prices, the lack of crowding and the central location make this an excellent stopping point - as long as your love of pool supersedes your desire for trendy decor.

Enter a twinkling town square off Sixth Street in Koreatown, squeeze up a stockroom stairwell lined with crates of sake and enter into something of a grand ballroom, which looks like an old church or a cavernous bank – but is actually one of the best clubs in Koreatown. This is Gaam Restaurant and Lounge's bright nighttime world. Here, overlooking Koreatown traffic, with a stream of soju and a steady rotation of K-pop music videos, the evening blends into the wee hours, and an early dinner can easily end in an all-night laser dance party. Accordingly, much of the food on Gaam's menu is the Korean equivalent of drunk comfort food, but any sober skeptic will drool over the vast, eclectic "spicy seafood soup," whose scallops and tentacles sizzle through the ragefest on a personal flame pot, and the Hibachi steak, laid on a bed of tiny forest mushrooms. And if that's not enough party for you, the excellent Gaam Karaoke is waiting just two blocks east. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
No discussion of Koreatown cuisine would be complete without mention of bingsu, an overwrought construction of sweet beans, canned fruit cocktail, ice cream, whipped cream and crushed ice, just to mention the basics. A properly made bingsu, which will often be larger than your head, brings casual conversation to a halt. Practically every cafAA(c) in Koreatown has bingsu somewhere on its menu. But the version served at Ice Kiss, a bingsu specialist near the Chapman Market, is garnished with a handful of Technicolor confetti that look and taste an awful lot like Fruity Pebbles. If you?re going to eat like a 6-year-old, you might as well go all the way. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://gollibee.com.ph Why do we love Jollibee? Is it the happy plastic mascot outside that looks like Big Boy crossed with an apple maggot? Could it be the goopy cheeseburgers, the fried chicken or the violet, boba-laden milkshakes made with the purple yam called ube? Might it be the palabok fiesta, squishy rice noodles glazed with shrimp, ground pork and fluffy fried-fish powder? Or is it just the sheer happiness involved in ordering Chickenjoy, Jolly Spaghetti and Yumburgers with cheese, which sound like formulations from the mind of George Orwell or Terry Southern? The fast-food chain, which has 500-odd outlets in the Philippines, has been resident in Cerritos for years, but the shiny, new outlet on Beverly near Vermont is its first freestanding foray into L.A. proper. You can get your ube shakes from the drive-through window. And Jollibee throws instructional Tagalog DVDs in with its kids’ meals instead of plastic Disney characters. What more could you want?

There are many reasons to fall in love with OB Bear, a venerable Koreatown tavern across the street from Southwestern Law School. You may admire the spicy squid served with noodles, the kebabs, or the roast chicken. You may be intrigued with the bar?s charming version of buffalo wings, which are as sticky and peppery and oily as the original, only more so. Something about the setup of the place seems to encourage the intake of intoxicating liquids, and it is easy to find yourself ordering frankly unwise amounts of whiskey, or personal kegs of beer so large that they dwarf the rather small tabletops, which can make any evening more entertaining. We are shallow and easily amused. To us, it is enough that this cheerful den of inebriation is located directly below the local chapter of Alcoholics Anonymous.

http://www.palmtree-la.com When you've got a song in your heart, money is no object. That's the idea behind Palm Tree L.A., a glitzy Koreatown karaoke spot that caters to an above-the-bar clientele. The nightclub vibe quickly gives way to glowing studio-quality song rooms, some big enough for 30 crooners. At $20 an hour and up, Palm Tree isn't the cheapest norebang (karaoke in Korean) bar you'll find along Wilshire Boulevard, but it's also not the sketchiest. Instead, rely on good friends, great songs (available in English, Chinese, Spanish, Korean or Indonesian), a few light bar snacks and the occasional call for bottle service to keep your spirits high, even if your wallet ends up a touch lighter than usual.
