"One would think finding a first-rate churro in this city wouldn’t be too hard a task, but that would be the wrong assumption. The good news is that Churros Calientes is here to save us from mediocrity. This tiny shop in West LA has been quietly cranking some of the finest Spanish-style churros in the city and shows no signs of slowing down. Head inside, order a fresh batch—crunchy, chewy, lightly sweetened, and slightly puffy—plus a cup of their bittersweet hot chocolate (for dipping, obviously) and die happy." - nikko duren, sylvio martins
