Where to find the best Belgian waffle? A magnificent mole verde? To-die-for dim sum? Times restaurant reviewers Linda Burum, Michelle Huneven, Jonathan Gold, Max Jacobson and S. Irene Virbila give their favorite platters a spin.

The mothership of the M&M; chain of African American restaurants is, simply what you want in a soul food cafe--a spare, well-scrubbed place that serves gargantuan portions of perfect Southern food. M&M; is an outpost of rural Mississippi in South-Central L.A. And when they’re on the ever-rotating menu, baked short ribs are stupendously good, glazed with brown gravy, as intense and chewy and meaty as great barbecue.
M&M;, 9506 S. Avalon Blvd., Los Angeles, (213) 777-9250. Short ribs lunch plate, $6; dinner plate, $8.
