All over Los Angeles there are white trucks lurking by sidewalks with customers hunched over dripping tacos on white paper plates. If you are brave enough to try one of these specious instituions, you can experience a real taste of L.A. Skip the trucks with burgers, fries, and Enlgish-only menus, and head straight for the trucks with Spanish monickers like "Mariscos" or "Cemitas Poblanos." The last one is a spicy fried chicken sandwich. The best tacos are usually $1.25 each, and you can find them in East L.A., downtown, Koreatown, and along Venice Blvd. in Culver City. On a cold night you can also try a hot corn drink "atol de elote" or a thick hot chocolate "champurrado." Be brave!
