Signage For Industriel Dtown, LB Vegan Eatery Open, Mayer Hawthorne's LA Eats, MORE!

DOWNTOWN— Signage is up for that new restaurant called Industriel, coming to the old Carl’s Jr space at 6th and Grand. FLO Design Studio is working out the aesthetic which is described as industrial (shocker) farmhouse chic. This spot will serve "a tantalizing twist on French Provincial comfort food," scheduled to open next year. [Brigham Yen]

LONG BEACH— Quarry Girl spots a new vegan eatery that opened yesterday in Long Beach called...wait for it... Long Beach Vegan Eatery. She hasn't dined there yet thus she can't comment on the food quality, but this is the menu. [EaterWire]

AROUND TOWN— According to PR, Pasadena's Dog Haus will open two new locations by the end of this year. One in Pasadena and the other in Alhambra. [EaterWire]

AROUND TOWN— Eater National catches up with LA-based neo-soul phenomenon/smooth bespectacled dork Mayer Hawthorne to talk food. What's he loving locally? Umami, Dan Tana's, The Apple Pan, Tacos Leo and Paco's Tacos: "The Apple Pan is the shit. That is the best banana cream pie in the world. Where else? Oh shit, Tacos Leo is great. That's my favorite taco truck out there. You know, L.A. is Mexico. It's basically Mexico, so the Mexican food is as good as it gets. Paco's Tacos on Centinela is also the shit." [-EN-]
