Komida, the taco concept from Yamashiro chef Brock Kleweno (not to be confused with Komeda, the fabulous Swedish pop band), will open October 6th. Located in a small area of the former H. Wood space at Hollywood and Highland, the menu will feature many of the same fusion tacos Kleweno......

This morning in a downtown Los Angeles courtroom, a bitter legal battle begins over identity. In one corner, a coalition of table sugar producers complaining about false advertising and attempted "food identity theft." In the other, high fructose corn syrup producers trying desperately to rebrand their vilified product as "corn......
The Far East Building, home to the Chop Suey Café (a.k.a. the Far East Café) and some of the best neon signage in downtown Los Angeles, will be getting a facelift. Its brick walls, which were damaged in the 1994 Northridge earthquake, will finally be repaired thanks to a $7,500......
