"On August 1, Xibei, a restaurant specializing in the grain-rich flavors of Northwestern China, quietly opened its first U.S. location at the Shops at Santa Anita in Arcadia. The 11,356-square-foot space, formerly home to Meizhou Dongpo, features high ceilings, multiple private dining rooms, and a sleek, modern dining hall. (A refined bar area is slated to debut soon.) China's Xibei Catering Group, founded in Inner Mongolia in 1988, now runs nearly 400 locations across the country;"
"its Arcadia debut introduces a lesser-known regional cuisine to Los Angeles diners. Northwestern food reflects the nomadic heritage and Muslim influences of the Uyghur, Hui, Mongol, and Kazakh communities across Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Xinjiang, and Inner Mongolia. It emphasizes lamb, ancient grains such as oats and millet, and a variety of noodles made on-site, as well as hearty dumplings. With great fanfare, the tuna king arrived in Los Angeles on August 2."

Sushi Zanmai opened in Koreatown on August 2; founder Kiyoshi Kimura is known for 24-hour service, affordable sushi, and high‑profile tuna purchases.
