Oishii Eats Loves La Taquiza
One of LA's best food bloggers explores the mulitas and al pastor tacos at La Taquiza, giving them very high marks. She also snapped a gorgeous shot of the pastor spit that will induce cravings in any taco fiend.

Meanwhile, over at the Great Taco Hunt
Bandini, Don of the online LA taco scene, has the opposite experience at a truck in downtown. Served a giant piece of a gristle, he also notices his food getting fingered before he gets a chance to eat it. Even the glorious taco lifestyle has its pitfalls...

Free "Tacos" for Life
Taco Bell, purveyors of taco-like foodstuffs, announced that the first person who donates a Play Station 3 will get free Taco Bell brand taco-like food for life. So far there have been no takers.


Don't Eat Tacos Here

Speaking of taco lifestyle pitfalls and taco-like food, you'll want to skip the following places next time you're out and about: Tacos Mex in Compton, Tacos Plus Ramos, and Tacos al Carbon Morelia in LA.

LAPD Officers Watched a Nearly $1 Million Metro Bus Get Lit On Fire. Why Didn’t They Do Something?

On social media, people were quick to criticize fans that participated in the celebrations. But few people questioned why the LAPD, a public agency with an annual budget of over $3 billion, stood around and waited until the bus was on fire before they did something.
