Chifa

With a stunning jade and marble dining room, Chifa is a Cantonese-Peruvian restaurant in Eagle Rock that's a must-see attraction even if you never take a single bite of the food. The menu is inspired by the restaurant in Peru that the owner's family use to run, and features dishes like pollo ala brasa, mapo tofu, and traditional zongzi, sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf and filled with Chinese sausage, pork belly, and mushroom. We particularly love the spicy beef noodle soup and si yao chicken, but whatever you do, make sure you save room for a few black sesame cheesecake tarts at the end—they’re excellent.
