Los Angeles' iconic Langer's Delicatessen-Restaurant is facing closure.
Say it ain't so – Los Angeles ' iconic Langer's Delicatessen-Restaurant is apparently facing closure.Norm Langer, the owner, says crime and homelessness in MacArthur Park would be the reason for the restaurant possibly closing its doors for good."It's not safe," Langer said. "It's too many needles. Too much fentanyl. Too much drugs."He's not wrong. Outside of the restaurant, the nearby park is packed with trash and violence.
I don't want to spoil anybody's appetite, but you've got a problem with defecation on sidewalks, for somebody was strung out on drugs. There's something. They're trying to make a score on fentanyl. They're passed out on the sidewalk, and the city is lame and doing something about it," Norm Langer said.FOX 11 reached out to Los Angeles City Councilwoman Eunisses Hernandez, but was not available for comment before Monday's evening newscast.
