I hope that we can still be part of this community moving forward, but the future is untold. We don’t know what’s gonna happen when the owner of this building wants to build 4 stories high and put a retail spot under here, probably double or triple our rent. We have a lot to display, but we also have to walk very cordially over the next few years. I predict a big shift coming up. It’s a hard conversation, but I think it’s a conversation that needs to be had now.

LA PIZZA DEL ESTE LA // CHEF EMMANUEL “MANNY” VASQUEZ.
I wanted to use pizza as a platform and add fine dining Mexican food on top of it. I wanted to take the slice as a vessel and extend that to everyone in the neighborhoods – the day laborer, the kids from public school. It’s elevating the culture, merging a fine dining aspect with the reach of real communities.
