Editorial Review
Talk about beef! Two O.G.'s claim to be L.A.'s O.G.-est French Dippas. You set trippas! Dank, noir oldie with baseball/railroad nostalgia and sand-dusted floor. The Original is a screw you to Cole's PE Buffet, a rival dip-setter with just-as-ancient claims to the neighborhood. Legend from 1908: preparing a beef sandwich for a cop, Philippe dropped the roll into pan drippings. The cop returned with friends for another. It is quite fucking good. Now someone shoot someone already!
