East LA Update

Ξ July 10th, 2008 | → 1 Comments | ∇ Uncategorized |

We received a brief note from Juan Torres, owner of Tacos El Galuzo, updating us on the situation with the new laws in East Los Angeles.  Sr. Torres is the president of the Associacion de Loncheras L.A. Familia Unida de C.A., a group that is organizing a legal fight against the new law.  While he has yet to be cited, Sr. Torres’ group is planning to attend the July 23rd court date of Alejandro Valdovino’s and his three citations he received for his truck, La Flor de Sahuayo.  We’ll keep you updated as well as we can while on vacation.

We’ll continue to update this page as readers submit more photos.  If you have your own pics of street food, whether in San Diego or Bombay, email the photos to contact@yorkblvd.com.  We’d especially love it if you wear one of our shirts!

Joey A. sends this in from Kolkata, India:

“This is Raj Kachori, my favorite street food ever!  A large puri (that brown shell in the bowl) all crushed up with boiled potatoes, dried noodles, curd, tamarin chutney, spicy chutney, and a bunch of spices.”

Chris C. sends these in from Bali…
