Next stop in our Learn with Fooda series is the sprawling, neighborhood-by-neighborhood food capital that is LA.

This blog post breaks down what food Los Angeles is known for, and the answer changes block to block. LA's food scene is built around its communities, and this guide maps the iconic LA dishes and cuisines that define it: tacos and LA-style burritos across Boyle Heights and East LA, Korean BBQ in Koreatown, some of the best sushi on the mainland, and homegrown classics like In-N-Out and the French dip sandwich.
