Grand Opening

LENA DUNHAM SPENT MLK DAY AT LOCOL IN WATTS

MLK Monday was the ideal date for the grand opening of the new LA restaurant LocoL, situated in Watts. Celebrity Chef Roy Choi did the area a favor by prettying up the formerly dismal neighborhood. And the locals responded with enthusiasm – a line formed around the block for the new place, which offers healthy fast food with fresh ingredients. It’s a hybrid of Mexican, American, and Asian food. And it’s AFFORDABLE! Healthy, tasty food priced from $1.00 to $6.00. Watts doesn’t get many trendy establishments so this is a big deal. A few Hollywood types showed up – Lena Dunham brought some friends, and Jon Favreau was spotted somewhere in the crowd.
