First taquitos I ever had were when I was a kid and my dad took me to Olvera street in LA. A big elderly Mexican woman with a giant cast iron deep fryer over a fire hand made everything. The taquitos were hot and they came with a cup of green sauce that was like runny guacamole!

@hyroot - that is a tight looking male!
We were on our way to Olvera st . X wanted taquitos . but it was to late.
I like.El Tepeyac better myself,
Hollenbeck burrito yaaaa..

I make my own now. Nothing better than fresh made!

We make tamales every Xmas.

@Don Gin and Ton - Taco Bell and Del Taco are only good when you have had too much to drink. They have some magical healing properties.

I always use two measures to judge a good Mexican restaurant - Do they have horchata (and is it good) and how are their carnitas (fried pork).

Super Antojitos wet burrito with green sauce is my favorite local dive. El Ranchito has killer Mole' Chicken. El Torito can still make some amazing dishes.

Carnitas:



Cheers,
Mo

I refuse to ingest the mystery "meat" that isn't really meat you find in the chains like Taco Hell. Taco John's is a biggie in my neck of the woods. One caveat though was I did gain a liking for Texas chain Taco Cabana and their beans & cheese filled, soft flour tortillas, smothered in fresh pico de gallo and washed down with either flavor Dos Equis. I could bust a gut on that shit and do weekly here in Kentucky in my own kitchen lol. Pretty simple to whip up at home and I make killer homemade flour tortillas, refried beans and pico.

If you ever have time to have lunch with me I will take you to two places here in Costa Mesa: El Toro Bravo and Super Pollo. El Toro bravo sells meat by the lb or made in combos. It is the best. Incidentally Mo, they make the Masa for tamales from the hominy. Maybe you have time during the holidays for a meet, greet and lunch. I am sure you work close to me. I judge the restaurant based on the salsa and their carnitas. You guys are making me hungry. GT

Go hit up great mex on old Newport on the side of the 55 and on the Peninsula. Best shrimp and fish tacos anywhere. They do taco Tuesday and taco Friday. It gets ridiculously packed on those days. $1 tacos and $1 beers. On the off days they hook you up with a lot more meat though. It's only $1-$2 more per taco on the other days. Their fish tacos are Mahi mahi. They have chicken, Carne, and potato to tacos too. Plus a full menu.

I have fond memories of begging my Mom to go to Jack so I could talk to the clown and order some cardboard tacos. Then when we got the food I would open the glove box and the open door folded down forming a little table. I loved to put my drink in the drink circle! Oh the simple pleasures :)

I just packed up the 73, 120, and 160 ice water extract. It is so dry and perfect! It was just like dry sift. The Rebar extract tastes so good. Seems to have a bit of the numbing aspect to it also. This is from licking my fingers when I cleaned the dishes. Can't wait to see what it does in my vape.

That is the good news. bongsmilie :weed:

The bad news is that Mrs Mo and I have been eating Costco rotisserie chicken salad for the last week and now I just read it has been recalled for e-coli! e-frikkin-coli! :spew:

:wall: :shock:
