 Follow the smell of taquitos muy auténticos at this LA institution on historic Olvera Street. The tiny stand has been serving freshly stuffed, rolled and fried taquitos since 1934, enough to earn its street cred title of "world famous." The thing to order is obviously taquitos, though there are also burritos and chile relleno, which come smothered in avocado sauce and optional beans and cheese.
There was no running water so the water was drawn from the gas station directly behind the stand. The food was cooked at home and bundled in cloth (manteles) to be carried to Olvera Street by trolley.

Several news outlets have reviewed Cielito Lindo. TimeOut says "Follow the smell of taquitos muy auténticos at this LA institution." NPR writes "the food stand is a Plymouth Rock of tacos, one place where the Mexican staple met a broader American audience." |
