LA’s Street Food Walk Of Fame

The city of Los Angeles known for their movie and music industry is surrounded in an abundance of food bustling flavours. We commence with the legendary fast food chain on the West Coast also known as In-n-Out. In addition, as Los Angeles is nestled closely with Mexican cuisines, it reaches out to have the most authentic Latin American food in the city. We later discovered Leo’s taco truck on the infamous Hollywood Strip.

In-n-Out

The first stop was the notorious burger chain In-N-Out Burger. While In-n-Out may not fit for traditional street food, the iconic establishment is strictly reserved within the Sun-kissed West Coast of USA. When we walk in you could instantly feel the classic retro American fast food scene straight from the movies. For my order, it was mandatory to experience the double double. You could instantly tell the double double was delicately crafted to be aesthetically pleasing. A few bites took place and all I can say is fresh goodness. Everything was made to perfection. Every element was executed to perfection, coming from the crisp of the lettuce to the charred edge of the bun. It was an encounter that brought back memories of those silver screen moments to life. 

Leo’s Taco Truck

When in Los Angeles it is mandatory to try the taco trucks here. One location which is known to be the best is Leo’s taco truck located on Sunset Blvd. Right off the bat, the queue for this spot is astonishing. Despite the size of the queue, the speed to fulfil each order was impressive. Soon come, I am next to order. I ask the man “give me your popular order”. The man smiled and says “yes sir”. Within an instant, my order was ready. With no seats around, I committed to sit on the curb. Now, seeing the pineapple on the tortilla I knew the man made me al pastor tacos. The flavour was unlike anything I tried before. It was very interesting but I enjoyed it. You could taste the adobo sauce coming from the marinaded meat, the sharp spice from the heat of the chilli, and the sweetness of the pineapple. This experience was undeniably unbeaten by being able to talk to the locals and trying food I am delighted to have tried.
