— Is Filipino food finally having its moment? Food Republic thinks so, with pop-ups like LASA in LA as an example. But perhaps the newly opened Rice Bar is a better example of Filipino cuisine hitting the mainstream. Hopefully these concepts launch dishes like sisig, pancit, and adobo into limelight.
— Jonathan Gold discusses the burrito de birria in El Monte's Burritos La Palma, which "might" not be a taco at a all. Actually, a burrito is a taco, and they're called burritos de harina in Mexico. Either way, they're really great (winning traditional taco of the year at Tacolandia), so you'll want to head east to try them.
— Is there anything worse than an Olive Garden food truck? Hey, at least there's free breadstick sandwiches.
—LA Weekly takes a longer look at Osso, which adds a tasty new component to the Arts District's offerings. Writer Lina Lecaro loves the fried chicken, as well as the drinks by Darwin Manahan, whose Hola Chingon! mixes blueberry cordial, tequila, and sparkling wine.
— Akaska Richmond launched lunch service at her new Sāmbār yesterday in Culver City, which should work out great for Sony and Culver Studios employees, plus anyone who lives/works nearby Downtown CC.
How exciting! @sambarcc by @AkashaRichmond starts lunch service today. Run, don't walk. #CulverCity #IndianFood pic.twitter.com/4hqcE6U2Q9

— Seems like everyone in the blogosphere (or Instagram-sphere) is checking out Luv2Eat Thai Bistro, which was first discovered (in a sense) by LA Weekly's Garrett Snyder but opened back in September 2014. Is this the new Pa Ord?

— Just a reminder that Bierbeisl Imbiss opens officially tomorrow, with a nightly closure at 2 a.m., making it one of the best new late night options in Downtown.
