What do we really mean when we call a dish “authentic”? The fact of the matter is that every single food we eat is a fusion of some sort—and no place exemplifies that more than SoCal and its seemingly endless spectrum of cuisines. Brian Addison and Sarah Bennett sit down with a master of fusion, Chef Beeline Krouch of Chinitos Tacos, to talk about his Mexican-meets-Asian grub, growing up in Long Beach, and stepping into the wild suburb of Lakewood.
