[dropcap size=big]T[/dropcap]his week, lots has been going on in the L.A. restaurant scene, including and a celebration in Boyle Heights for Los Originales Tacos Arabes.

Apple Pan, the historic West L.A. diner on Pico by the Westside Pavilion, changed ownership. But not to worry, it will remain largely in its present form. And then, on the opposite side of town, East Los Angeles, a big step up for Los Originales Tacos Arabes. The famous Puebla-style cart got a full food truck last week! We also paid a visit to L.A. Birria, a new beef birria contender in West Adams.

Produced by Mariah Castañeda, Daniel Hernandez, Cesar Hernandez, and Erick Huerta. Edited by Erick Galindo and Cesar Hernandez.
