Raku in West Los Angeles

Raku, 11678 W Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90064, 310-478-3090, is pretty awesome. A group of us headed there Saturday night after our art opening. We were tired, hungry and thirsty. Beef Sashimi, Otokoyama and Onigoroshi Sake (they had Kubota but it wasn't in our budget), Okonomiyaki, Ginger Pork, Sashimi Plate, Bibimbau (spelling?), Flourless Chocolate Cake. The chef is Japanese-Korean and the cuisine is a celebration of this. It's a great place, a good date place and open late.
