38 Essential Tacos to Try in Los Angeles
"It is well documented in Mexico that burritos are tacos (tacos de harina, or tacos norteños) and since 1972, Manuela and Adeline Portillo’s East LA burrito stand has been a local favorite. Inside the classic 50’s- era burger stand, now run by grandson John Anthony, Mexican Americans cue up for LA-style combo burritos packed with refried beans, melted cheese, beef, and either a mild green salsa or a spicy red salsa. It all gets folded together inside of a large flour tortilla that’s warmed on a comal." - Bill Esparza
