“Little Sister DTLA features East-meets-West inspired dishes served in a relaxed social environment that feels more residential than restaurant, as if you"re being invited into the Chef Tin's home. With Little Sister Downtown, we are digging a little deeper into regional Asian cuisine. Dishes blend and balance the spices and flavors of Southeast Asia with French techniques and Dutch and British colonial influences. The menu is continually and progressively evolving, reflecting inspiration and the seasons. Chef Tin curates the restaurant's wine and beverage program with a focus on intriguing labels, both domestically and from around the world. Craft beer selection includes special batches from The Brewery at Abigaile, brewed only for the restaurant.”
Little Sister is conveniently located in Downtown Los Angeles. The diverse areas of the city and decades of rebirth is exhibited by its fashion district, banks, skyscrapers, redevelopment, sports complex, skid row, and luxury apartment buildings. The city has experienced several cultural, economic, population, and culinary changes and reforms since 8,000 B.C. when the Chumash settled the area.
Later, Spanish explorers and settlers dominated the region from the 1500s to the 1700s, when Franciscan friar Junipero Serra established a mission and founded El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciúncula, in honor of Mary, mother of Jesus.
A population explosion in the 1920s brought a more diverse populace of people with Asian, Caucasian, and African ancestry. Downtown declined after economic, transportation, and ethnic changes in the 1930s, and transformation brought about by World War II. The recent renaissance and renewed interest in the city is fascinating. Chef Tin Vuong of Little Sister is part of that renewal and his restaurant is worth checking out.
