Olvera Street At Night

Hey Neli!  I’m in Olvera Street… your Mexican, where should I eat?

Glad you are curious… let me tell you, the night we went up to Glendale to check out the used Camry and ended up in a Tattoo Parlor, we also ended up passing thru Downtown Los Angeles.  I was with the husband, my brother, and his girl friend, we decided to eat at Olvera Street, at a place called “La Luz Del Dia Restaurant”. 

This was the only place that was open past 8:30pm.  What can I tell you… food here is very good, service is awesome.  Here is what we ordered:

Bro: 2 carnitas tacos, 1 stew beef taco
GF: 2 nopalitos tacos (cactus)
Pat: Stew beef tostada
Me: 1 carnitas taco, 1 stew beef taco, and a Champurrado!

A Champu… what?  Champurrado… it’s kind of like hot chocolate, but thick because it is also made with masa (corn flour). 

This thing was PHENOMENAL!  It was one of the most delicious champurrados I had tasted, and I tend not to like them too much, but I was curious and it was a cold night.

So now you know if you are in Olvera Street, check out this restaurant.
