Cenaduria Oaxaqueña Donaji

18 Dishes to Add to Your California Bucket List | Eater

"A home eatery operated by an aerospace employee and his family makes some of the best tlayudas this side of the border. Head into Cenaduría Oaxaqueña Donají — a tent next to a house in a Riverside residential neighborhood — to grab the street food favorite and join what feels like a house party. The tlayuda — a tortilla, stuffed with black beans, cheese, and lard — is the real deal, its ingredients imported directly from Oaxaca on a regular basis." - Vox Creative

Where to Eat the Best Oaxacan Food in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"Zapoteco aerospace mechanic Efrain Toledo works on Teslas and rockets — and also happens to make the best traditional Valles-style tlayudas in greater Los Angeles. Start with a pair of whopping molotes (masa fritters) coated with black bean puree, and dressed with guacamole, and crumbled cheese, or memelas spread with asientos and beans. Tlayudas are slathered in asientos, black beans, a covering of quesillo, and shredded cabbage, then folded and grilled over mesquite. They’re served in a shallow basket with a choice of tasajo, cecina, or chorizo, plus add-ons pipicha, and papalo, in this Riverside backyard (making it a genuine Oaxacan cenaduría)." - Bill Esparza

It’s worth the drive to Riverside for their fried-to-order molotes covered in black bean sauce, avocado sauce, and crumbled cheese, and stuffed with potatoes and Oaxacan chorizo, not to mention their traditional tlayudas, which come with pipicha, pápalo, and add-ons like roasted chile de agua — your choice of tasajo, cesina, or chorizo — that are folded and cooked over mesquite." - Bill Esparza
