About Rachel Bae—LA-based Mom, Wife, Grad Student & Foodie

Hi! I’m Rachel Bae

Hi! I’m Rachel Bae—a mom, wife, full-time grad student, and foodie based in sunny Los Angeles. Having lived in LA for 20+ years, I’ve been lucky to witness Koreatown’s incredible transformation over the years. From nostalgic mom-and-pop spots to the latest trendy openings, I’ve explored every corner of K-town and experienced its rich culture and flavors firsthand.

I’m passionate about sharing my honest experiences, not just in Koreatown but across LA, in hopes of inspiring others to discover and fall in love with all the amazing things this city has to offer. Whether you’re looking for hidden gems, timeless classics, or the newest hotspots, I hope my reviews help you see and appreciate Koreatown and LA in a whole new way!
