Jonathan Gold pens a tribute to Raul Martinez Jr., who founded the King Taco chain, as well as well-beloved El Taurino in Koreatown. Founded in 1974, the chain now has 20 locations across L.A. County. Gold credits Martinez Jr. for creating the al pastor craze in L.A., as well as the now-ubiquitous taco truck. [LAT]
