Expert Taqueros Hit Downtown LA's Best Restaurants - Chef's Night Out

Ойын-сауық

It’s not often that the father-son team behind some of LA’s favorite tacos gets a night out together for good ol’ family bonding. So when Armando De La Torre-Senior and Junior-take us on a food tour of Downtown LA and Boyle Heights, they hit all their favorites, new and old.
We start the night at Bestia with rhum agricole daiquiris and dry Szamorodni bone marrow luges before heading to an old-school Mexican diner in Boyle Heights called Manuel’s Original El Tepeyac Café. The crew puts down a five-pound burrito filled with chile verde, rice, beans, guacamole, and oodles of cheese. We close out the night with cervezas and Morrissey karaoke at Eastside Luv before heading back to Guisados’ Downtown LA location for a mountain of carnitas ropa vieja tacos and chorizo quesadillas. Órale.

    RIP Manny, we miss you. When ever I fly home to LA, this is the first place I go to eat straight from LAX. Then Tommy's Original for a double and then Philippe's for beef French doubled dipped. LA Original's I grew up on. Nothing beats the originals. LA has changed so much in the past 55 yrs this is all that is still the exact same for the most part "food places". Must mention a few others like El Cholo, Fat Burger, and way to many old great places are long gone.

    I wanted to say this a long time ago but for some reason i'm starting to notice that most most if not all the restaurants that have a munchies segment pretty much cover the same food culture/mentality with a little personal influences. New York munchies you got italian, asian & italian fusions, California - Latino, mexican and asian either standalone or mixed. South part of the USA is mostly BBQ or deep fried, North part of the USA is mostly fish and sea fruit. European munchies is pretty much influences from what is hot in the USA and sometimes genuine traditional food with a modern twist from the chef's country.

    Guisados is amazing. I'm from Southern California and have always lived in or very near Mexican neighborhoods with great taquerias. I first tried Guisados when I was living in East LA about 8 years ago. It had a kind of taqueria vibe but it was kicked up a notch. They weren't just trying to feed you, they were trying to do it at a different level where it was a taqueria but also offering interesting Mexican flavors you might not find at other places, something a bit different than your everyday taqueria. Don't get me wrong, the regular taquerias around LA can be amazing, this one though was a unique thing. 100% recommend it to locals and tourists alike.
