Century City: Former First & Hope chef Shelley Cooper does her two-night stint at Test Kitchen this weekend. [Test Kitchen]
Hollywood: You can stop eyeing the bowls of berries and greens for sustenance at The Library Bar. This weekend, a new small-plates menu (spicy tuna on crispy eggplant; bacon-wrapped dates) will be available at the Roosevelt Hotel bar; should go great with Matt Biancaniello’s farmers’-market cocktails. [Feast]
Koreatown: If you ever wanted grasshoppers and agave worms prepared by Michelin-trained chefs, you’ll get the chance at the Supper Liberation Front’s Oaxacan-inspired dinner at Guelaguetza on Sept. 24. [Squid Ink]
Santa Monica: Sushi at Sunset (not to be confused with the defunct Sushi on Sunset) is now serving non-traditional sushi at the Loews Hotel. [Eater]

Koreatown: Dig into jjajangmyeon, plus old-school, throw-back Chinese dishes, at Dragon Restaurant. [Midtown Lunch]
Melrose: 8 oz. adds Korean flavors to the mix. Introducing, The Chosun One burger. [Teenage Glutster]
Hollywood: Johnny Zander (Teddy’s, The Green Door) opens Hemingway’s near Ivar on Tuesday. With classic cocktails, book-lined walls and typewriters, it almost sounds too smart for the scenesters. [UrbanDaddy]
