LA: “the wicked stepchild of the craft beer world”

Well the Burnt Mac missed the Craft Beer Fest this past weekend at the Echo in Echo Park...but we shall live vicariously through the LA Times Review. Sounds like a success...albeit a hot one. Looking forward to next year's event.

In+Out: Get it while its still Grade A

In-N-Out: Will it's 27yr Old Heiress Keep it Real? [LA Times]

Yet In-N-Out's history is anything but dull. The Snyders established a line of succession skipping over their older son, Guy, in favor of the more stable Richard. That well-laid plan dissolved with Richard's death in a 1993 plane crash. The inheritance passed to Guy, who had a history of drug abuse and died from an overdose of a prescription painkiller in 1999. With Esther's death seven years later, majority control became vested in two family trusts. It will pass after 2011 to Guy's only natural child, his daughter Lynsi Martinez, 27.

Outside the Rock: Pancake Paninis

The Egg, Sausage and Gouda Pancake Panini from

The Corner in Hollywood [2.5 stars on yelp]

...it was relatively good...very filling...but I mostly appreciate it for its creativity. Burnt Mac's buddy had the Fried Chicken version (with gravy) and liked it alot.

Mmm...taco trucks.  Would be fun to do this...even without my fav comedian Aziz Ansari.  Gotta check out his standup CD when it comes out soon...he's friggin' hilarious.  Can't wait to try out some of the recommended trucks.
