"Serving the community for decades, Sara’s Market in East Los Angeles felt like a fitting location for El Perro Negro’s introduction: the family-owned store regularly plays host to notable pop-ups and food trucks, including the 2018 launch of Evil Cooks, who now appear at Smorgasburg on Sundays, and East Los Angeles is also Huerta’s hometown. Garcia said, "It’s always great to be back at Sara’s," reflecting the market’s role as a community hub." - Eric Valle
