A law firm claiming to represent Ralphs supermarket chain has threatened to sue a beloved Pacific Palisades taco truck that has parked outside one of their client’s locations for ten years unless it relocates. 

During an interview with L.A. TACO, Rudy Barrientos, owner of Gracias Señor Taquería, recalled a man with “very short hair,” wearing “a white shirt and jeans,” handing him the cease and desist letter “in the middle of service” earlier this week.

“Rudolfo?” The man said before handing him the letter.

“Did you just get served?” A customer asked.

“I think so,” Barrientos replied before continuing to prepare orders.
