Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate This Week: October 15 | Eater LA

"When I'm Westside-ish and a little hungry for something quick and satisfying, I often stop by Tacos Tamix, one of LA’s best al pastor purveyors operating a truck right off the 405 at the crossroads of Clarkdale, Mar Vista, and Palms. I usually opt for the al pastor shaved off the trompo into waiting tortillas with an expert swipe of a knife; the essential slice of pineapple on top carries some of the savory smoke from the meat along with the sweetness of warm fruit. The tortillas are no-frills but do the job of holding everything together and not getting too damp once salsa is added. The only downside is that taco shrinkage still seems real, so I often add an extra taco just in case." - Eater Staff
