Noodle dishes at Mian
If there’s one thing that Angelenos of all stripes can get behind, it’s a bowl of spicy noodles. Los Angeles loves the stuff in all its forms, which is at least in part what has helped to make Mian such a sensation across the Southland. The star restaurant, an offshoot of the Chengdu Taste empire run by Tony Xu and Sean Xie, began in the San Gabriel Valley but has now expanded its footprint to include Artesia, Las Vegas, and beyond. Next up: West Adams.

From cake shops to large pizza chains to high-end restaurants and a few bars, a good portion of the Seattle dining scene decided to pause service this weekend altogether, or reduce hours because of the oppressive heat wave. In Seattle, the mercury hit 104 degrees on Sunday, June 27, setting a mark for the hottest day on record, and establishments that didn’t have air conditioning (and even a few that did) made adjustments out of safety concerns.
Beacon Hill’s popular Filipinx restaurant Musang canceled all reservations on Saturday and Sunday, while Eden Hill in Queen Anne and Georgetown bakery Deep Sea Sugar and Salt did the same. Several other establishments, including Communion, Melo Cafe, and Lowrider Cookie Company, closed early Sunday. Some of the area farmers markets, including West Seattle’s, also shut down on the early side, citing the heat.
Great meals forged in chaos, from finessed fine dining to a double dose of bagels.

Restaurants have now spent a year jolting over the potholes of our pandemic dining protocols. And a small but battle-tested new guard has never known any other type of existence. Over the past six months, we welcomed some long-anticipated spots, plus others that sprang into existence as an unintended upside to last springâs shutdown chaos. A few currently offer adapted versions of their original vision, like a gorgeous Capitol Hill wine bar that sits empty while the kitchen puts out creative lunchtime pizza. (Fear not, Seattleâs newcomer pizza game remains strong, and more varied by the day.)
