Downtown LA Artwalk

Downtown LA Artwalk gives everyone a chance to appreciate the art made in LA. Galleries are open all over downtown along with bars and live music gigs on each block. I'm so happy I finally got to go (it happens once a month...). A crowded night. I've never seen the streets so full of LA pedestrians before.

"Fashion is art" gallery gave out free tank tops, lip gloss and blush.
The trucks were about too! At the dimsum truck, I had the Peking Duck taco--a heavy sauce on juicy duck with cucumbers. yum but not my fav :)
Also tried beef fried rice cake. They took the dduk from ddukbokki and fried it, putting a heavy soy based sauce on jangjorim style beef. Surprisingly good fried but so soy!

Lastly, the best dish of the night came from the India Jones truck. The paneer Frankie: a roti (like a tortilla/naan bread) wrap with tamarind cilantro chutney, onion, one fried egg, and whatever filling. Not to sweet, not too salty, just right! And the cheese was so good. A pleasant surprise, this combo.

More galleries with color
Hmm I don't get this one..

Tuesday was Frida Kahlo's birthday!

I like this artist's take on her portrait.

More colorful galleries.

Oh LA.
