Fall cookbooks 2013: LA Son by Roy Choi
Available at Vroman's Bookstore, $29.99.

If LA's food scene had a mayor, than Roy Choi would be its don. Get lost in Choi's world from a punk kid hanging out in the streets of Garden Grove and Hollywood to gambling and K-town drinking (with a week of crack in NYC in between). Read in awe and, at times, disbelief, as Choi finds his way as a latchkey kid, soul lost, top toque to, ultimately, the man behind the taco truck that spawned a revolution in Los Angeles dining.

Say adieu to summer cocktails and pool parties and greet fall in Los Angeles with fall activities (did someone say hayrides and ghoulish galas?) and the season's top designer collaborations. If you're feeling a surge of back-to-school DIY energy, head into the kitchen with these fall cookbooks of recipes, from Cal-Med small plates to Korean-Mexican-only-in-LA munchies. They will inspire you to hit the books (or at least your next meal). These cookbooks are available for pre-order now—most will be released in early fall 2013.
