What to Eat This Weekend: Smashburger Tacos, A Werewolf’s Barmitzvah, And L.A.’s First Full-Service Cannabis Restaurant

This weekend is especially active with delicious things to eat and fun things to do, with a new spot slanging memelas and tasajo, and a Beetlejuice film night and taco pairing. Come out and take advantage of living in the best city in the world.

Celebrate Día de Los Muertos at Hollywood Forever's at our annual event this Saturday. And make sure to stop by our third annual L.A. Taco Land, located inside the famous cemetery, behind the main stage. Grub on tacos from Tacos Los Cholos, Holbox, La Carreta, Carnitas El Artista, and Pablito's, and say hi!

PleasureMed is now open in West Hollywood. L.A.'s first full-service cannabis restaurant contains three concepts in one 50,000-square-foot space: a beautiful Cuban-inspired cannabis dispensary, an outdoor lounge called Hind for creative cocktails like a Oaxacan rum-and-aquavit slushie, and a gorgeous upstairs restaurant named Irie, with food from a Hatchet Hall veteran, along with sophisticated bongs and dab rigs on the marble bar, and a well-tailored smoking lounge. The concept comes from Pleasure Chest owner Brian Robinson, while the menu includes dishes such as venison burgers, jerk-fried quail, and barramundi with rapini. The exterior features a 67’ x 30’, 4-minute 3D video art experience titled "The Jaguar’s Eye." A must-see!
