    Best Tacos in L.A.
    Being originally from L.A. and visiting at least twice a year, I wanna hear what you guys think are the best tacos in L.A.

    Thought this up because I went this past weekend and had some amazing tacos at El Chato Taco Truck.
    The Al Pastor and Cabeza tacos were the best and the Carne Asada, Buche and Chorizo tacos were darn good.
    For sure will be visiting this place again, especially after the $13 bill for seven tacos and 3 bottled mexican sodas!

    I've tried a lot of trucks and my favorite Al Pastor taco comes from Tacos El Pecas, a truck parked at the corner of 7th and Soto every night. And they're even cheaper than the place you went to.

    I also like the tacos at Fridas - Cochinita Pibil or carne asada, (melrose or brentwood), shredded beef tacos at Lotteria grill at the Farmers Market (@ the grove).... Although not exactly a taco, the sopas with shredded short ribs at Red 0 are quite good, though if the bouncers at the front door don't put you off, the prices may.

    If we're going past tacos...I would highly recommend Huaraches from Huarache Azteca in Highland Park.

    I like this place on Hillhurst in Los Feliz that serves either fish or shrimp tacos. Its autnetically down at heel and yummy. Lots of great salsas and cabbage to add yerself + tHey have a sour cream dispenser so u can add tons more cholestorl to the alaredy fried offerings.

    If only I could recall whats its called.

    Anyway - $1.75 for fish and $2.25 for shrimp - and they are bigger than yer avg street taco

    Damn, you guys sure know how to torture the rest of us, without access to any of these delicious morsels. I s'pose I could start a 'Best Poutine' thread, but I acknowledge it's not really everyone's bag :twisted: Have to mark these names and locations down if my travels should bring me that way. How 'bout some quick pics the next time you guys are dining on these delights?
