Come & Get It
Northeast corner La Brea and Venice |
The cooks must be between 5' 4" and 6' 2". The same requirements of Air Force pilots. |
Note the pineapple on top of the spit -- a little zest in the al pastor (shepherd style) pork tacos. $1.25 each. |
Did I mention they were only $1.25? And did I mention they were heaped with carne asada? |
A couple of cabbies wait for their meals. LAX is very slow on Saturday nights I was told. |
The dining area was like a small church. A church where a man can worship carne asada. |
Looking out toward La Brea and thinking of a chinese saying, "The doing is easy. Deciding what to do is difficult." |
I decide to have another taco. And it was easy.
They were only a buck twenty-five.
