If you pick up this week's issue of LA Weekly, you'll notice it's our mother paper's People Issue, where the great, the weird, and the wacky of Los Angeles get mini-profile. Reading them is always a treat, especially when there's hints of Orange County, but my jaw dropped when reading the profile of Danny Trejo, the chingón former con turned bad-ass actor--MACHETE MACHETE MACHETE!

Anyhoo, buried in the piece is this fascinating tidbit: Trejo plans to open a Mexican restaurant in Huntington Beach.

The piece says it'll be called Trejo's Place, which goes against what Trejo told a gossip blog last February--that it was going to be Trejo's Tacos.
