Laki Ramen Coming To Mid-City

In a recent post about Mid-City, I opined about the plethora of empty storefronts along Wilshire Blvd.  One plucky contender appears to be bucking the trend and is moving into a space along the storied stretch of boulevard.  There’s a banner up at 6254 Wilshire (formerly home to Pita Kitchen) announcing the impending arrival of Laki Ramen.

Genki Grill, Spare Tire Kitchen Disappear From Mid-City

A concerned reader (Thanks Lisa!) took the time to let me know about some recent blows to the Mid-City food scene.  Korean eatery Genki Grill is now closed at 6355 Wilshire.  A little farther East, gastropub Spare Tire Kitchen & Tavern has completely disappeared from its erstwhile location at 5370 Wilshire.  I’m not sure what this portends, but there do seem to be an awful lot of empty storefronts along Wilshire Blvd.
