Lucky Peach is a quarterly journal of food and writing. Each issue focuses on a single theme, and explores that theme through essays, art, photography, and recipes.
The theme for Lucky Peach's 21st issue is Los Angeles.
I have to admit, when I saw the theme of this issue I kinda groaned. I thought every article was going to be cliche, but LP does it again and drew me in with great, enlightening writing. It helps that I'm a big Nancy Silverton fan and that I wanted to know more about Trois Familia, Petit Trois, and Trois Mec. It was blew my preconceived notions way out of the water and I was very happy it did.
