The Park's Finest Barbecue Restaurant
Just minutes away from Echo Park Lake, The Park's Finest Barbecue Restaurant prides itself as being a local fusion of American BBQ meets traditional Filipino cuisine. A community conscious grill joint in Historic Filipinotown, the restaurant, run by the Concordias and their close-knit group of family friends, blossomed from a small catering company to a local LA hot-spot that offers belly-busting dishes packed with unique flavor. Southern American classics like corn bread are given Filipino finesse, as the cornmeal is combined with rice flour and baked on a banana leaf, and the tender Mt. Malindang Pork Ribs and Riblets are seasoned, slow-smoked, and accompanied by two sauces (one sweet and soy based, the other a secret spicy sauce passed down by generations). Definitely the perfect place to satisfy summer barbeque cravings, with a creative, Filipino flavor profile!
