Lukshon in Culver City has been on the "to try" list for awhile and I finally made my way there over the weekend. It is the fine dining concept by Sang Yoon of Father's Office. The space itself is a very modern and cool backdrop for such amazing food. I sat outside and was pleasantly surprised how warm the heaters kept the space. Now let's talk about the food- such a great dinner! Every dish has so much flavor and many of our dishes were pretty spicy, which I enjoyed. I tried the hot and sour gimlet and it was so excellent, best cocktail I've had in 2012 for sure!

|
Spicy chicken pops that you MUST try with garlic, kecap manis, spicy sichuan salt |
|
Brussel Sprouts had so much flavor and are unlike
any other brussel sprouts I have ever had with chile garlic vinaigrette, sesame |
|
Dandan noodles with kurobuta pork, sesame, preserved mustard greens, sichuan peppercorns, peanuts |
|
Complimentary desserts with pear sorbet and peanut brittle parfait.
Both were great and the perfect bite of sweetness to end such a wonderful meal. |

Beautiful parfait! |
Have you been to Lukshon? Did you love it?
Thanks to your review I got to try the chicken pops and Brussel Sprouts. They were life changing.
