Shiku - Grand Central Market / DTLA

If you can’t tell, I STAN Shiku.

Kimchi’d Corn

I was heartbroken when Baroo (and Baroo Canteen) closed because I felt it was among the most inventive and exciting food I’d had in the world. Fast forward to Shiku, which I quickly fell head over heels for. I love both the traditional Korean dishes and ones they put through a Baroo lens—but I’ve been secretly (selfishly?) hoping to see some bits of the old Baroo menu pop up as well. The Kimchi’d Corn is a crack in the door and just what I’ve been looking for. Part of their Karma Circulation dish at Baroo Canteen, it’s spicy, sweet, and addicting—fitting in perfectly among the other Shiku banchan. I’m not sure how long they will keep this around, so get it while it’s good.

They’re also doing a Children’s Day doshirak on the 5th that’s up for preorder (get your ssam kimbap for lunch and then margs for dinner).
