From that site: "The road to taco bliss is paved with good intentions. I opened up my big mouth and declared tacos zorro the king of the valley. This contention was challenged by someone who goes by the name of "the taco duder". I recieved the cryptic note via email " car wash - vineland and vanowen- tacos la fonda for the best tacos in the valley, not tacos zorro" "So I took up the challenge and rolled into east valley searching for the famed tacos la fonda." - http://tacohunt.blogspot.com/2006/09...-la-fonda.html That location (Tacos la Fonda is a roach coach) is directly across the street from my usual BBQ joint. And I was there just yesterday for a baby back ribs and links combo plate with beans and potato salad. All tables at the Q joint have a nice view of the end of the car wash where the cars roll out to be toweled off. ![]() The next one I looked at on that page is not only near me but on my way to my favorite computer store -- I've probably driven by it hundreds of times over the years. A comment mentions their good breakfast burritos, and Blinky loves breakfast burritos. Thanks again for the link.

Mmmmmmmmm! > And again your fav Roach Coach: > http://www.chowhound.com/topics/492698 I don't have a favorite Roach Coach, as a careful rereading of my post will demonstrate. Watch for quotation marks. But yes, I'll be trying that one; it's good to see it recommended in a second place.

![]() "sandi" > wrote in message ... > Thought Blinky and others might enjoy the read. > > "The Great Taco Hunt" http://tacohunt.blogspot.com/ Haven't been on a taco crawl in ever so long. We have Alberto's out here on the east side. I have yet to have better fish tacos. And their taquitos are to die for. They have all kinds of Horchata flavors that they make themselves. In fact considering the neighborhoods some of them are in, to die for is not such an unlikely possibility. But the danger does add a lot to the experience. Pablo |

Instead, scout out the stands and trucks in your surrounding neighborhood. It's a continuing adventure for angelenos. Note the places that have the longest lines at lunch and the most people hanging around late at night. When you decide which one to try, say "What's especially good today?" with a smile. -aem |

LOL. > > Too Many Places ![]() I thought you were asking about all those restaurnts on the list. ![]() Still: Mapquest or something will give you routing and you can print out the directions/maps for easy driving. Those two aren't far from Hollywood/ThaiTown. Just north of Hollywood, on the other side of the Hollywood Hills is the area where those two taco sources are. -- Blinky Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://improve-usenet.org Blinky: http://blinkynet.net |
