It was sad day when Bryant Ng’s Spice Table closed. It was my favorite lunch place in Little Tokyo (and DTLA), and Bryant and his staff were wonderful all around. That’s why I was excited to hear that Bryant was teaming up like Voltron with Zoe Nathan and the Rustic Canyon/Huckleberry crew. Apparently, a ton of money was involved, because the new venture, Cassia, is beautiful.
It’s not done yet, but it is now certain that Bryant Ng is closing the doors on the Spice Table and moving west. if you’ve been putting off trying some of the best and most innovative Southeast Asian flavors in the city, hustle, son. They’ll be closed by early 2014. The date is unclear, but I wouldn’t count on waiting until January.
The Spice Table, one of my favorite restaurants, is doing DineLA! And unlike a lot of places in recent years, they are offering a heck of a deal on a great meal.
It’s now been a couple months since the Spice Table stopped it’s lunch service. Finally, my tears have dried enough for me put thumb to phone to write out this eulogy to a fallen hero – Spice Table’s bahn mi lunch.
Yesterday, this bomb dropped: the Spice Table will not be serving lunch.
“As of now, and until it closes, the Spice Table will be open only for dinner due to recent flooding that resulted from plumbing problems, Brucker said.”
I take full responsibility for not eating every meal there, as I should
have done. You’ll feel deep regret like I do once you read the caption on

I’ll post a proper eulogy soon.
