Sean Robins - aka The Monster - tells us how, and why, he ate his way through the entire 2011 Los Angeles Zagat guide. Jim Heimann recounts what the first menus in America looked like and Jonathan Gold declares he has a new favorite sandwich shop in LA. Shelly Schmidt offers a chemistry lesson on sugar, and scientists Adam Hoover and Eric Muth explain their latest gadget, the Bite Counter. Plus, Marja Vongerichten of the Kimchi Chronicles demystifies cooking Korean food at home, and Elina Shatkin gives us a tour of LA's Kosher Corridor.
