Driving to an assignment up one of my favorite alternate north-south routes through the megaopolis, I spotted The Crab Pit and its banner promising “tacos with a lot of soul!” At that moment, I knew I would have to cover it for LA Taco. With so much in the news about Hispanic v. Black tension in our beloved Southland, could it be that food might be something that we could agree upon? To paraphrase and extend the logic of a well-known angeleno, “Can’t we all just sit down together, eat some tacos, and get along?” Maybe it would be too much to ask of The Crab Pit to unite working class interests equipped with only its Mexican/Cajun/Sea Food/Soul Food fusion menu items. While a turkey “Killer Taco” alone might not enable us to overcome our differences, I had all the faith in the world that it would allow me to overcome the hunger in my belly.
