SGV crawl, Taco crawl, etc. itinerary

Couple of suggestions for the taco crawl (my favorite food activity for out of town visitors):

  • Kickoff with breakfast at weekend only Barbacoa Estilo Taxco for lamb and goat goodies
  • Pick only one fish taco stop - shoot for diversification vs duplicating specialties. I’m fond of Tacos Baja Ensenada (5385 Whittier Blvd), fun setting (in a taco dining sense) and love the AYCE roasted yellow “chilles gueros”. Also consider adding El Bigoton for the Sinoloan seafood tower
  • Leo’s only at night after the sun sets. Apparently the pastor trompo does not make an appearance until nightfall, completes the experience.
  • How about adding carnitas (Villa Moreliana or Momo) and offal (LA Guera - evenings only) options
  • Holbox - make sure you sample the various salsas offered. Order a Yucatan style turkey Panuchos from their sister establishment - Chichen Itza a few feet away

Shame about Guerilla taco, very unique. Resist the urge to gorge, tacos while appearing small fill you up quickly.

Happy crawling!
