The Best Dishes Eater LA Editors Ate in 2024 | Eater LA

"Tucked in the parking lot foregrounding Dreamworld Comics in Culver City, Tacos del Valle, a taco operation that has been servicing the Westside for nearly two decades, serves rich Oaxacan fare to comic book aficionados, locals, and drivers passing by. A visit typically requires a taco or few, but regulars know that the menu’s real prizes lie in its behemoth tlayudas, served folded on a plate with tasajo, chorizo, and cecina, and the thick, chewy memelas, which are painted with refried beans and roped with quesillo. All meats are fired on the charcoal grill that butts against the sidewalk; an abstract splash of green and red salsas and handful of buttery radishes round out the perfect plate. — Nicole Adlman, cities manager" - Eater Staff
