The tastiest event this weekend, in my opinion, is the L.A. Taco Festival at Grand Park downtown on Saturday.  BBQ lovers will head to the Long Beach BBQ Festival today through Sunday.  Wash it down and quench your thirst at the Taste of Brews at Lighthouse park in Long Beach on Saturday. Have some dessert at the Chocolate and Art Show downtown Fri/Sat nights if you are 21+. If you've had your fill and couldn't eat another bite, watch someone else stuff it in at the 10th Annual World Gyoza Eating Championship on Saturday.
