The Restaurant List L.A.

Welcome to my blog, fellow low end theorist. Here is a list of every restaurant I have visited in Los Angeles and environs (n=341). It is divided into two sublists; restaurants from Jonathan Gold's excellent "Counter Intelligence", and other restaurants.

Happy eating,

Simon aka Low End Theory
