OVERVIEW
East Los Angeles is known for its Mariachi Plaza and its Latin (Hispanic) Culture. Join us in the spirit of celebrating time honored family traditions. This is one of LA’s first and original middle class neighborhoods, separated by the LA Viaduct. Guests will enjoy traditional family recipes and take to heart their moving, inspiring stories. Trekking by foot and Metro trains, these classic tastings are truly a wonderful representation of the Latin culture and trade and a way to experience celebrated recipes passed down by generations.so that for most people lunch afterward is not necessary.
DETAILS
Start the day with the most amazing freshly hand-made Tamales. Then head to the bustling Mercadito for more tastings before exploring a real-deal Tortilla factory to try all kinds of salsa/guacamole dips and delicacies. Then hop on the Metro Gold Line for a short train ride to Mariachi Plaza for a sumptuous lunch of mouth watering Goat and Pupusa. Polish all this unbelievable food off with fabulous tres leches cake and churro in East LA close to where we met earlier in the tour.
All these glorious foods are prepared from time-honored family recipes and served with the true warmth and hospitality we’ve come to associate with Latin Culture. For visitors and locals alike, there’s a whole other side of LA just waiting to be discovered, so join us on our East LA Latin Flavors food tour.
The tour centers around Boyle Heights, with well-deserved focus on Mariachi Plaza, the grand centerpiece of the neighborhood. Palates are pleased beyond measure to enjoy a unique medley of fresh, amazing Latin flavors that have graced family tables for generations.
