Tacos Tours: North Hollywood

My Canadian friend Ryan came to visit me from Colombia. We met in Mexico so naturally we have an unwavering love for tacos. North Hollywood is like the taco capital of North America, so I took him on a short taco tour, to taste the offerings of this fine city.

VALLARTA MART - VICTORY BLVD

Carne Asada // Al Pastor // Carnitas



Not very Fresh!

Too Salty!

TACOS MEXICO - SHERMAN WAY

Al Pastor//Carnitas//Carne Asada





Better, but still a little too salty.

The Al Pastor was better, but I like it fresh.

TACO BELL - OXNARD BLVD

Just kidding
EL TACO LOCO - LANKERSHIM BLVD

Carne Asada//Carnitas

Que delicioso!

An enjoyable freshness.

Best Tacos So Far!

HENRY'S TACOS - MOORPARK AVE

In a totally different class than the previous.

This is the Americana Style Taco.

They do it the best.

You can tell, because he's pointing at it.

I've spent a considerable time in Mexico, and I can honestly say the tacos are better here. Though the tacos may be better in San Diego.

Next to T.J., and outside of Mexico, North Hollywood really is the taco capital of North America.

If you ever go on a fish taco tour, be sure to start at Taconazo, in Walnut, which undoubtedly has some of the best fish tacos you will ever taste.

Also, try doing a torta tour. It's real hard to find a good torta. Real hit or miss.
