One of my favorite things to do in Chicago was to head over to the local independent bookstore and sign their entire stock of my book. Why not? I was so proud of creating The Korean Vegan Cookbook and I was excited that my local bookstore—one that I bought all my books at anyway—was proud of me! And guess what? The Korean Vegan Cookbook was their best selling cookbook of the year!!
.
So, when I moved to LA, I wanted to create the same relationship with a bookstore out here.  When Ken texted me and asked me to come by for some vegan pastries, I was like, HECK YEAS!!! He had a bunch of copies of The Korean Vegan Cookbook ready for me to sign, as well as a box of vegan cookies and croissants ready for me to devour.  Afterwards, we went next door to visit with @endorffeine and then got to hang with the owner of @bakers.bench (the genius behind the flakiest vegan croissants you’ll ever eat). Chinatown is a bit of a hike, but people like Ken—they make me feel safe, supported, and confident in ways I can’t easily describe. And all of a sudden, a 50 minute drive to my “local bookstore” doesn’t seem all that bad.  Throw in the smoothest Americano you’ll have drink paired with a CRAZY DELICIOUS vegan cookie, and, well, now I’m looking for excuses to go to Chinatown!
