U.S. Supreme Court nominee and Federal Appeals Court judge Sonia Sotomayor (R) meets with Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) (L) on Capitol Hill June 8, 2009 in Washington, DC. Sotomayor had fractured her ankle in New York on her way to Washington for meeting with senators.
Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor takes the stand Monday as her confirmation hearings begin on Capitol Hill. Slate legal eagle Dahlia Lithwick talks to NPR's Guy Raz about what we can expect as the hearings progress — and whether newly minted Judiciary Committee member Al Franken will get off any good jokes.

Tacos Baja Ensenada
Do not judge this restaurant by its cover, rather by the lines you're likely to find during the lunch rush. The famed fish tacos are made with flavorful, deep fried halibut filets that crumble in your mouth, wrapped in two perfectly grilled corn tortillas and topped with shredded cabbage, salsa and a rich cream sauce. For the adventurous types, there is a nice spread of condiments and salsas. The atmosphere is laid back and the prices so reasonable you'll forget you're in LA. By far the best fish tacos north of the border!
