Devastatingly good writing ⬇️: "The tortilla smells of corn warmed by sunshine. Your eyes gauge the best starting point to dive in; it’s at the crease, where you’ll find a density of tastes and textures. A two-toned crackle-crunch rings in your jaw." 😊 https://t.co/yMnSsIfKhc

The masterwork of Alfonso 'Poncho' Martinez is his tlayuda con tres carnes, a canvas for Oaxaca's glories.

A new era ☀️
I've loved my time working with our powerhouse @latimes entertainment & arts team. But this is the right moment for me to return to the world of food, which is in the midst of so much change. Excited to get started! https://t.co/Fde96aIlUv

If you read any food essay this week, read @BillAddison’s appraisal of Chez Panisse. It’s personal, thoughtful, and wise about the restaurant’s place in history.

Chez Panisse turns 50 this month. Critic Bill Addison asks: Is its greatest legacy on the plate or on the page?

Editing @streetgourmetla has been one of the great honors of the last, oh, DECADE that we've been collaborating. These four food/travel stories are nothing short of bonkers beautiful. A special thanks to @mattatouille whose vision guided the whole shebang!
Take a slow-cooked, pit-roasted journey with @streetgourmetla through the scores of regional Mexican barbacoa styles found in the Golden State. From LA to the Bay Area, this is California’s Barbacoa Trail. https://t.co/rxeywvriRf

Found my way to Macheen via @lataco, so double thanks @theglutster!
Huge congrats to Macheen on today's @latimesfood review by @BillAddison. Love to see L.A.'s homegrown DIY taco talent be recognized. Jonathan is a hustler and I respect his skater-punk origins in L.A.'s Taco Life.

The last time I was in Atlanta (in 2012), I ate this fried chicken with biscuits and gravy with @BillAddison at The One-Eared Stag. If you vote as well as you cook, Georgia, this country’s gonna get back on track.

Pop-ups can be ephemeral, but it felt right to acknowledge their contributions to the community in this year’s @latimes 101 list. Here are 11 takeout pop-ups you should be considering, compiled by our critics @BillAddison and @piescarcega:

The best pop-ups take on 2020 and reshape the future of L.A. dining.
