CROWDSOURCING — Chefs Roy Choi and Daniel Patterson have surpassed their $100,000 fundraising goal for Loco'l. The chefs hope to revolutionize the fast food industry with affordable, delicious, wholesome food. The chain will open two stores in California, but Choi has suggested Detroit as a third possible location. Take a look inside Loco'l's test kitchen now. [EaterWire]
