Hi! Nice to meet you.

About Us

Welcome to our vibrant corner where we bring to life the dining experience through art and writing. We are Jason and Rina, two friends bound to a shared love for food, dining and curiosity of our city's rich culinary scene.

Meet Rina

Rina is a baker and illustrator whose passion for food is only matched by her skill with a watercolor brush. Her detailed illustrations capture the essence of LA's diverse food landscape, bringing to life the flavors and stories behind each dish and establishment.

Meet Jason

Jason is a seasoned journalist and former waiter with a knack for storytelling. His experience spans news, sports, and entertainment, but it's his background in the restaurant industry that fuels his deep appreciation for the hard work behind every meal.

Our Roots

Our connection to food runs deep, rooted in our upbringing. Both of us were raised by parents who worked in the restaurant industry, instilling in us a profound respect for the labor and love that goes into every dish.

Our Mission

We are on a mission to seek out small businesses and share their unique stories through intricate illustrations and compelling narratives. We believe that every bite tells a story, and it's our joy to uncover and share these stories with the world.

Join us as we explore, illustrate, and celebrate the heart and soul of LA's culinary community.
