This place is what I would make when I’m super drunk and need food after a night of partying. Full of flavors!! They’ve got everything your fat persona may be craving. Don’t worry, vegetarians, they have seasonal charred vegetables on the menu too.

Located in a central plaza in Chinatown, Chego is a creation of Roy Choy. I get stuffed each time I come here. Each plate is loaded with vegetables, meat, seasonings, fried bits of heaven-sent goodness and flavor. The boldness of the flavors keeps me coming back.

Great spot to take a group of hungry people or to eat on your own. Parking is limited, find it along the streets.

Located in Far East Plaza, you'll have to navigate past the hour-long line of Howlin' Ray's hot chicken. My friends and I decided to check out Chego, since we were in Chinatown, and we needed some food. We ordered a bunch of things amongst the four of us and it was more than enough food. Here's what we ordered:

Kimchi Spam Bowl (fried rice with butter-fried kimchi, Spam, scrambled eggs and Chinese broccoli w/ a touch of toasted sesame) - this was really good at first. But it wasn't until after a while that I realized just how much kimchi there was. It was too much. It could have used less kimchi/Chinese broccoli and more rice. The more I ate it, the less I liked it.

Chubby Pork Belly (kochujang-lacquered Kurobuta pork belly rice bowl w/ fried egg, pickled radishes, water spinach, Chinese broccoli, cotija and peanuts) - this was pretty good. The more I ate it, the more I liked it, the complete opposite of the spam bowl. The fried egg was a nice touch.

3 PM Meatballs (Korean-fried, w/ shaved green onions, sesame and fried polenta patty) - this was interesting. Instead of making the meatballs with breadcrumbs, they made it with polenta. I enjoyed it but some bites were super spicy, and I can usually handle spicy foods.

Ooey Gooey Fries (beer-battered, w/ sour cream sambal, monterey jack and cheddar cheese, cotija, chillies, cilantro and pickled garlic) - these were great. But just like with anything fried, they were to much after a while. The sour cream sambal just tasted like spicy mayo.

It was a nice place to try out, but I probably would not come back. Wouldn't mind trying that Howlin' Ray's though, but I definitely wouldn't want to wait on that line.

Our best and memorable eat in Los Angeles. I suppose our experience here was the most inspiring for us as we thought  it quite represents LA well with its fusion of Korean and Mexican flavors. Absolutely enjoyed the naked burrito bowl with Korean flavors there like gochujang, all the vegies and crunchy nuts and the smoky and flavorful pork belly. The flavor exploded in our mouth as it was spicy, sour, fresh, smoky, fatty and umami at the same time. Had an interesting dessert at the end with chocolate bar with spicy flavor in it.

Normally my reviews fall in line with the norm, but not in this case.  The food was flavorful and spicy.  Normally two combinations I really enjoy.  The pork belly was good, but I like it when the pork belly is a bit more well done so the fat is crispy.  There was also a lot of spice/horseradish focused in the greens which made it hard to eat for me.  The fries were good, the beefy t bowl was tasty, but a bit overboard on the flavors IMHO.

You know how people will ask you to describe your last meal if you were in death row? I have a one word answer: Chego. The only thing better than their Chubby Pork Belly bowl is adding pork belly to the side of Ooey Gooey Fries. It’s truly happiness in a bowl.
