we were craving a dessert and found this place on yelp and decided to head over. it is located in…read morefront of the grocery market across from the eastridge mall. the churro can come with different fillings like custard, but we opted for the original. when we got there, the lady made our churro fresh. it was PIPING hot when we got it and SO GOOD. it was coated generously with the sugar and cinnamon. definitely want to go back and try it with different fillings. we ended up just eating it outside in front of her stand since it can get a little messy. 10/10 recommend

After going to mass today my mom was craving churros, fresh churros, not the hard frozen kind that…read morevendors have sitting behind a glass enclosure then reheat and serve. Yuck! Frozen churros should be arrested for false impersonation. I was going to stop by Cardenas Markets to get Tres Estrellas Churro mix which is like bisquick for churros and make some at home. I highly recommend this mix and it even comes with a piping bag but you should have some experience of making choux pastry dough since the directions (for me anyways) have always been wrong. However, since I'm planning on baking lots of cookies tomorrow I decided to jump on Yelp Bay Area to find a nearby churro vendor. We could've gone down to Our Lady of Guadalupe Church or Christmas in the Park where there is one good churro stand down by Quetzalcoatl. Again, the other stands have those fake frozen impersonators but since I didn't want to search for parking I decided to go with the Yelp recommendation of Churros El Guero in front of Fresco Market next to Eastridge. This is also a very busy spot but we were able to score a parking spot right away. Unfortunately, the churro guy had just arrived and his oil was still heating up so we were patiently people watching. This is when we noticed lots of people going over to this haphazard outdoor dining spot. This was not the ideal spot to visit since the weather forecast has been falsely taunting us with rain all day. Since it was now noon we decided it was best to eat real food before munching on something sweet. I had never been to Elma's Taqueria which is connected to Fresco Market probably because I don't like that market. I went in once when they first opened and it stunk. Literally and figuratively. Nope, I'll pass. The line for Elma's was impressive so we strolled up to the outdoor window and looked up at the menu. It's basically Birria everything. Birria de Res (beef) and Birria de Chivo (goat) in a bowl, tacos, quesadilla, quesabirrias, etc...and daily specials including Menudo today. Since it was packed we shared a table with a gentleman from Michoacan while waiting for our order who said this is the best birria anywhere. He said even in Michoacan this is would be the best birria. High praise indeed. My verdict. It was good. Well seasoned, juicy and generous portions. I could only eat one taco so we packed up the rest to bring home and walked back over to the churro stand. Remember the churros? I did. In fact I remembered hiring El Guero to do some events for me in the past where he brings his pot of oil and makes fresh churros on the spot. Then you can have him fill it with chocolate, strawberry, caramel or other fillings. $3 each or 4 for $10. We opted for 2 originals, 1 chocolate and 1 strawberry. We gave him the cash, brought them home and plopped down to enjoy our fresh churros and we were happy. End of story.

Story Rd Union 76 Tamale - Red with chicken

Story Rd Union 76 Tamale

Melt in mouth. Get different spiciness from red vs green chilis. The power of the chili comes…read morethrough. There are whole green chilis embedded in the chili tamales. The meat ones are different. Chili chopped up and mixed in. Best tamales I ever had. Bought 2 then went back the next day and bought 14 to give away. 3$ each Shockingly good. Had many tamales before this. Nothing even close. In the same gas station as the 10$ car wash. She doesn't speak english. Zero english words. Use google translate to learn some rudimentary sentences before going. 5 types of tamales 1) red with beef. 2) red with chile and cheese, different spiciness than green. Smoother chili flavor. Tastes like homemade chili powder ground from dried chile. 3) red with chicken, different than green with chicken. Have to taste them one after another to distinguish. The red chili spicy flavor is very different from the green chili flavor. The green is captures the sourness of tomatillo. The red has a earthy flavor from freshly ground chili powder from a mix of dried chiles. 4) green with chile and cheese. Spicy on tongue, with slightly sour acidic background. Tomatillo sour blends well with cheese. Contrasting spicy and creamy flavor. 5) green with chicken, has slightly sour taste compared to red. Hand shredded chicken breast. All served warm from cooler. She is there before noon with 2 other older people. By 2pm she is sold out and gone. Best tamales I ever had. Melt in mouth. Like brisket; has to be served freshly steamed and kept warm. If allowed to cool it isn't the same after. Microwave after not the same. Have to eat them fresh and still warm from steamer. Better than any restaurant. One key i sthey are wrapped and served warm; not reheated.
