Hey kids! Time again for our monthly restaurant roll call! What did we see this past month in our fair county? More cronuts in the North, more G Burgers in the Middle, and a Blind Pig in the South. And let's not forget the long-awaited brick-and-mortar home base of the once itinerant taco truck Taco Maria in Costa Mesa.
Let's get to the list of the open-and-shut cases we wrote about this past month, shall we?
