On a recent Sunday, we headed over to Highland Park to sample the Good Girl Dinette, a Vietnamese fusion restaurant that came highly recommended. We weren't disappointed. People looking for traditional Vietnamese food will find traditional-sounding dishes, but with little twists that make them contemporary for Los Angeles.
For example, a traditional Banh Mi sandwich will feature shredded chicken, while the meat in a Good Girl sandwich will have full pieces of grilled white meat.
The Rice Noodle dishes are similar to a traditional Bun salad, but the veggies here are farm fresh and add a crispness not usually associated with traditional Vietnamese Bun.
