Road Nutrient - Tacos Of Southern California

The Heavenly Taco Goodness of Los Tacos de Huicho

 Today, nosotros pose the spotlight on i of the greatest fast foods inwards existence...

One existent exercise goodness to living inwards Southern California is all the actually good, authentic ethnic nutrient nosotros accept here.  From Chinese to Kosher delis, Japanese, Thai, as well as more.  One affair no i tin laissez passer on the axe girlfriend is the saturating abundance of Mexican nutrient nosotros accept around here.  For those of y'all who accept seen our Napa Valley Part 1 video, you'll notice Tim called Los Tacos de Huicho the best tacos we've ever had...including United Mexican United States (which is really true).  Here is my real-life scale of taco goodness, alongside 10 beingness best as well as 1 beingness worst.  Let's commencement at 1...

1 Tacos Puebla.  Pasadena, CA.  Bland meat.  Overcooked when it shouldn't be...undercooked when it should.  Awful tortillas that accept an undercooked, doughy texture.

2 Tacos Don Chente.  El Monte, CA.  I'm gonna piss person off alongside this one.  Pretty restaurant.  Clean, happy feeling place.  Good looking desserts.  I desire it to endure good...why can't I stand upward their tacos?

3 Tonny's.  Pasadena, CA.  Many people dear this place.  It's simply average to me.

4 Jack inwards the Box.  Nationwide.  They must pose scissure inwards those two-for-99cent tacos.  I don't know why nosotros similar them...but nosotros do.

5 Taco King (not to endure confused alongside #6).  Azusa, CA.  Another decent taco stand upward inwards the city.  Good, but simply to a higher house average.


6 King Taco (not to endure confused alongside #5).  Locations across the Los Angeles region.  The best taco chain.  Great carne asada, proficient al pastor, decent carnitas, as well as lame roasted chicken.  Their cherry sauce volition brand your lips experience similar they're falling off.

7 Rudy's. Monrovia, CA. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 sit down down, total service restaurant. Most nutrient it meliorate than average but Rudy straight off has a large taco de tripas on the bill of fare that's out of this footing good.

8 Pepe's.  Alhambra, CA.  Nobody makes a hard-shell taco similar Pepe's.  Just dripping alongside juicy goodness as well as layered alongside cheese, throw a dollop of their swell sauce on as well as enjoy.


9 El Picoso.  Azusa, CA. (Similarly, almost related, is El Picosito inwards Duarte, CA) Tacos de papa.  I've tried many places as well as pretty much choke on these murphy tacos.  Not here.  Delicious, fried pockets of tortilla filled alongside simply the correct sum of potato.  Also, pretty much the best tripas S of Bakersfield summation proficient enchiladas as well as rellenos brand this house stand upward out.  Note:  Many of their best dishes...such every bit the tacos de papa...are non on the menu.  You simply accept to know they brand them.


10 Los Tacos de Huicho.  Bakersfield, CA.  How to they exercise it?  I've been hither dozens of times as well as it's e'er delicious.  Have worked my agency virtually half-way through their bill of fare as well as accept soundless to uncovering anything that is non absolutely delicious.  Although everything is top-notch here, their specialty is al pastor.  One of the few places left that exercise it right, roasted on a vertical spit simply oozing alongside juice.  Tripas...I realize some of y'all are pose off of this offal meat...are crispy, tasty lilliputian critters inwards their delicious fried tortillas.  The creamy, edible bean as well as meat goodness of their sopes residue on a simply crispy plenty shell.  The fish tacos are fresh as well as volition blow those of y'all who similar Rubio's away.  They fifty-fifty brand some of the best french fries we've ever had.  The salsa bar holds their perfect cherry as well as dark-green salsas, summation the holy grail of salsadom...their spicy, creamy, guacamoloe salsa (see pic above).  The toll of a taco hither is solely 99cents...everyday!  The solely downward side is their bar, which makes some pretty lackluster margaritas.
