    Making L.A.: Food

    Where can you get a 4-hour, 20 course Japanese meal, the best French omelette on Planet Earth and a goat taco -- all in one day? Los Angeles, of course: this city is a culinary wonderland. But not everyone is sharing in this bounty. In this installment of our Making L.A. series, we talk about what’s happening in the food scene, and food policy.
