Two new food trucks hit L.A.'s streets.

With restaurants and bars cutting back their hours and less people stepping out, can we still call ourselves the city that never sleeps?

Michael “Bao” Huynh teams up with the group behind BLT Market and the designer of Allen & Delancey.

Delicatessen says it won't go 24/7 for a few months.

Its 75th anniversary was cut short at 7 p.m.

Bun beats Delicatessen to the 24/7 punch.

Our post about Bun running out of free food sparked a couple of angry comments but also some full-bellied defenders.

The Vietnamese restaurant was supposed to start its 24/7 schedule today, but a free-food promotion ran it ragged.

Michael Hunyh may have found a restaurant home he can stay in, according to Gael Greene.

Forget gratis falafels and complimentary scoops of fro-yo— Bun is unleashing a free-for-all that is so friggin' generous it may well put them out of business.

According to Gael Greene's Website, Michael Huynh may be doing a restaurant on the Upper West Side.

Frank Bruni awards one star to Ilili, establishing the restaurant’s critical reception as generally admiring but far from ardent. Bruni uses it as an occasion to discourse on the current trend of highlighting previously low-rent genres, but he seems to have liked all the food and not found the prices or noise too distracting. [NYT] Steve Cuozzo wanted to hate Chop Suey, he really did. The name was dumb, and he was skeptical of consulting chef Zak Pelaccio, whose “résumé of short-lived eatery associations … is as long as his list of bona fide accomplishments is short.” But he loved the food and its “bold, explosive” flavors. [NYP] Ryan Sutton also plays the “better than it has any right to be” card with Chop Suey, declaring the place as “jolting, gorgeous, frightening” and reluctantly praising its Korean-themed food.

Yesterday Bret Thorn seemingly debunked Gael Greene’s assertion that Michael Huynh left Bun because he wasn’t getting along with his partners and was opening a noodle shop near his other joint Mai House. Thorn had it from the restaurant that Huynh was merely on vacation. Bun’s publicist, Sam Firer, e-mailed something to that effect: “Michael just came back from Vietnam last night and he's a wee bit surprised to find out he's left two of his restaurants. He hasn't. Just a malicious rumor.” However now the Insatiable Critic, who started all of this in the first place, hears from Huynh that although he considered leaving the restaurant, he decided he didn't want to lose his investment.

Michael “Bao” Huynh has left his post at Bun, saying he couldn’t get along with his partner. Next up: a new noodle shop in Tribeca.

The story on Irving Mill was written before Frank Bruni delivered the coup de grâce — an ambivalent one-star review that pointed out the restaurant's odd inconsistencies. At this point, a one star was probably a best-case scenario for the place. [NYT] Speaking of best-case scenarios, we bet that Gordon Ramsay had higher hopes for Bruni's rereview of his big restaurant than the one that runs in Dining Briefs. Bruni finds Gordon Ramsay at the London still excellent but boring, and Peter Meehan isn't too crazy about Bun. [NYT] We heard that Ilili was a disaster, with bad service and worse food. So did Paul Adams, who was surprised to find that the word on the street was dead wrong. Adams even calls the food was “far, far better than it needs to be.” [NYS]
