Lasita gets a renovation, new menu items
Earlier this year, Lasa in Chinatown’s Far East Plaza was rebranded as Lasita, a casual Filipino rotisserie and natural wines concept; recently it closed for a couple months for a renovation. Now it’s open again, and former Lasa chef de cuisine Nico de Leon runs the restaurant with owner Chase Valencia, serving dishes such as chicken inasal and pork belly lechon. There’s a new bar snacks menu, which includes smoked eggplant crostini and sinigang shrimp chips, to pair with natural wines.

At Qué Padre, a fast-casual restaurant in the Palisades Village shopping and dining district, chef Isaias Peña’s menu is inspired by various regional cuisines of Mexico. He makes tacos with house-made corn tortillas and fillings such as poached lobster tail in a walnut cream sauce, mole negro, and Bohemia beer-battered halibut. Ceviches feature scallops and the catch of the day. The drinks menu has a robust agave-based spirits selection and cocktails such as a cucumber jalapeño margarita and coffee-infused mezcal with coffee rum and Cynar.
