Oh, one of my favs. The Hollenbeck is my usual.

NM, EH and I almost went there after the car show on the day after Thanksgiving. However, we decided that having the friend of NM who we were meeting (she was down visiting from the Bay Area) try to find her way blindly around East LA at night might not be the best thing.

I'm about overdue for an El Tepeyac visit.

ETA: from their web site:

Manuel's Special, over five pounds worth of ingredients that fill two tortillas to near bursting, is the Mount Everest of burritos. It was created when Manny bet someone that they could not finish one of his burritos. He won.
