What To Eat This Weekend In L.A.: Colombian ‘Super Arepas,’ See’s Candy x McConnell’s Ice Cream, and Uni Toast With Jalapeno Marmalade

Also, Colombian hamburgers, a vintage European truck slinging burgers, Hawaiian pizza pupusas, and cannabis that will melt in your brain, not in your hand.

We had to take last week off from writing this newsletter to embrace an ascetic lifestyle deep in the woods, following a particular gluttonous  TACO MADNESS festival. 

But we're back today with an unholy banquet of bacon pupusas, ice cream laden with California's classic centurion candy, fry-stuffed gryos, uni toast with jalapeno marmalade, and more as spied by our deputy editor Hadley Tomicki.

Buen provecho!!

NORTH HOLLYWOOD

L.A. Greek Food is a new truck posting up in North Hollywood, wrapped in a Santorini dream of blue roofs and bluer sea. Gyros stuffed with pork or chicken, tomato, onion, yogurt, and fries are their main thing, along with Greek salad, feta cheese dip, and sweet crepes containing strawberries and Nutella, and savory crepes with chicken or pork and fries, as well as one with ham, salami, turkey, and bacon.
