Part 2: One of my friends from our weekend taco run called me to grab a quick lunch at GCM. Figured, why not? Let’s continue our Taco Journey.

This little taco stand inside Grand Central Market has quickly shot up the ranks to become my favorite Carnitas Taco shop in the city! 
Lovely, authentic Michoacan Carnitas, properly cooked. And unlike many places that have just 1 type of “Carnitas,” here they serve 14 (Fourteen!) types of Carnitas.
Pork goodness!
Pierna Carnitas (Slow Cooked Pork Leg (“Ham” on Menu)) Taco:
Lean, but tender. Not too salty. Delish!
Espaldilla Carnitas (Stewed Pork Roast) Taco:
It’s on the leaner side like the Pierna but more juicy.
Buche Carnitas (Stewed Pork Stomach) Taco:
Really tender, a nice, slight chewiness.
Lengua Carnitas (Stewed Pork Tongue) Taco:
A bit more firm than traditional Beef Tongue (Lengua), it’s still tender, but definitely the most substantial of the cuts of meat I tried today. But very good.
Costillas Carnitas (Stewed Pork Ribs) Taco:
Probably my fav of the cuts! Super tender, but with nice crunchy bits from the soft cartilage being stewed down. So good! 
It was sold out today, but their Orejas Carnitas (Stewed Pork Ear) Tacos have been consistently awesome! Soft with a slight crunch.
Simply awesome! My favorite Carnitas in L.A.
