Description

Chef Roy Choi calls himself a “street cook.”
He wants outsiders, low-riders,
kids, teens, shufflers and skateboarders,
to have food cooked with care, with love,
with sohn maash.

“Sohn maash” is the flavors in our fingertips. It’s the love and cooking talent that Korean mothers and grandmothers mix into their handmade foods. For Chef Roy Choi, food means love. It also means culture, not only of Korea where he used to be born, but the many cultures that make up the streets of Los Angeles, where he used to be raised. So remixing food from the streets, similar to good music—and serving it up from a truck—is true to L.A. food culture. People smiled and talked as they waited in line. May not you sign up for him as he makes good food smiles?

Jacqueline Briggs Martin, creator of the Caldecott Medal winner, Snowflake Bentley in addition to Farmer Will Allen and the Growing Table, and Alice Waters and the Go back and forth to Delicious continues her Food Heroes series with Chef Roy Choi on people who change what and how we eat. At the side of food ethnographer June Jo Lee and the world over renowned graffiti artist Man One, they bring an exuberant celebration of street food and street art.
