Taco restaurant · Silver Lake

@infatuation

"At El Ruso, a Sonoran-style taco truck in Echo Park, the tortilla is king. Made with flour that the truck's owner sources from his hometown of Tijuana, these are the kind of chewy discs that make each bite a euphoric experience. As far as El Ruso’s excellent mesquite-grilled meats go, the muñeco combo remains our top choice. Smoky chopped carne asada and spicy chicharron en salsa roja pile into one of those golden tortillas, plus you have the option of adding stewed pintos, cabbage, and diced onion to create a hearty beast of a taco. And if they happen to have them on the menu that day, don't leave without a burrito wrapped around one of their sobaqueras, a stretchy hubcap-sized Sonoran flour tortilla that's the only one of its kind in town.  " - sylvio martins, garrett snyder, brant cox, nikko duren
