Zacatecas restaurant in Hawthorne, Inglewood Ave about 1/2 a mile south from Chubby Rice.
Carnitas plate. They substituted grilled vegetables for me instead of rice as I’m back on the low carb schtick.
I photographed it so you could see the crispy goodness. It’s served with a slightly hot green salsa on the side.
Grilled shrimp.
Love this place. Drinkable red salsa fresca for their chips.

Thank you for the rec!!
Funny, I just did a search Zamora Bros and got like 4 other locations. I assume they are not related though.
One in Compton, Hawthorne, Cesar Chaves, and Alhambra.
I no longer feel like such an outlier with my feelings on Carnitas El Momo
The move at El Momo is to ask Billy for the sticky icky good stuff on the bottom of the pot with a little of that pickled jalapeño/carrot juice.
That fukin blew my mind.

Whoa… Must try…
Which one and how was it?
Oh WOW! I just did a search and found the facebook page of the one in Compton has nearly identical signage and offerings… So perhaps they are related…

Hubby loves that place. Thanks for the reminder. Last time we went to Tacolandia he was so excited they were in the lineup. But apparently they didn’t like the location of their stall and refused to open. 
Some past eatin
Wadatsumi Torrance
Seaweed Salad - not hijiki, not bad
Shima Aji and Kanpachi sashimi - lovely, but not meet the height of Raku, the cheap shoyu was a shame for he quality of the fish
Wagyu Roast Beef - excellent, great texture and the wasabi made for a nice balance to cut through the fat
Steamed Sliced Wagyu and Vegetables w/ Ponzu - this was excellent, really fantastic that the beef fat saturated the napa underneath. Beef fat saturated foods is sorta my thing though. The ponzu was excellent and added a great balance to the dish.
Chef Choice Vegetable Kushiage - very well executed, veggies were perfectly cooked and easy to eat if I were patience enough to wait for it to cool down.
Stan’s Donuts - mothaeffinHuell
Dai Ho
Marinated bamboo with ground pork? Excellent!
Beef Noodle Soup - excellent, good amount of heat
Dat noodle action shot.
Brent’s Black Pastrami Rueben 
Sushi Kamon
Sashimi Platter - excellent, the amaebi was excellent, others were above average
Fried Squid
Fried Chicken
Fried Tempura
Luv2Eat Thai
Jade fuckin Noodles
Spicy Beef Salad

OG Luscious Dumplings.
Bok Choy. Potstickers. Pockets.
Potstickers, were good. Bok Choy should have asked stir fry with some garlic, instead of a shallow pool of soy sauce(why?). Pockets, I could use a little more chive kick and filling.
Anyone do OG Luscious>>>Hui Tou Xiang bang?
Best Noodle House.
Dan Dan Noodles and Cucumbers.
Nice salt and garlic kick to the cucumbers. Dan Dan is not what I typically grew up on (Taiwan style). Asked for “small spice”. It’s a solid bowl of noodles but for personal tastes, it was okay.
Hong Kong Cafe (Garvey x Garfield).HK Lemon Tea. Cocktail/Coconut/Gai Mei Bun. Free Soup.
I pierce the lemons in the tea. This was refreshing on a summer day. I absolutely love Canto soups! I think most SGV Canto Seafood houses have stopped serving this for free. Dim sum and BBQ gets all the love and attention but really most Cantos LOVE soup. The coconut bun came HOT and tasty. I am a coconut whore though.
There are a lot of delicious Chinese buns. Pineapple buns. BBQ Pork buns. Red bean buns. Chicken buns. Don’t sleep on some coconut buns.
Fun fact: Gai Mei=Cocktail, literally

Okay, good. I think you hit the hammer on the head. It’s good for this side of town. As long as folks temper their expectations it is a really good place to enjoy traditional dim sum? I hope they survive because we have so few places in this ‘hood.

That Steamed Wagyu and Veg! I gotta try that! I need to try other things besides the beef bowls at Wadatsumi. (Still haven’t tried Red Rock speaking of beef bowls)
How do you like Dai Ho’s beef noodle soup vs Corner Beef Noodle House?
