Trekking LA 2009 reception features street food at Mercado La Paloma

I didn't get to go to any L.A. Commons events last summer, but they had a great selection of food and culture activities including a barbecue tour and Thai Town tour, introducing Angelenos to various cultures of the city. L.A. Commons is kicking off this year's Trekking LA 200: Global Feasts, Local Streets series with a party at Mercado La Paloma, Downtown home of Mo-Chica, Chichen Itza and more.
Good Magazine
co-sponsors the event on Thursday, June 25 from 6-10 p.m. Tickets for the evening, which includes food, music, art and more, are $20 and available at the Good website.

Hey Pat,
There is nothing on the link to LA Commons web site about this event or any future events.

Good find. Sounds like a must-try event. Mercado La Paloma was already great, and with the recent addition of Mo-Chica, seems like it got even better. The pastor taco at Taqueria Vista Hermosa is a contendor for best taco in L.A., especially when paired with their smoky burnt orange salsa. The sweet chilacayote agua fresca is also stellar. Here's a link to a fairly recent experience:
