[Los Angeles] [Mexican] El Flamin' Taco

El Flamin' Taco
5th and Vermont
Los Angeles, CA 90020

This taco truck used to be at the corner of 3rd and Vermont.  I first noticed it because it had bright LCD sign with Korean and English running.  Now they moved to a better spot on 5th and Vermont inside a carwash parking lot, and it's within walking distance from my work.


Lengua Taco ($1.25/each)

I went the Walgreens on Vermont to buy something.  Afterward, I remember this flashy taco truck right next door and walked over to grab dinner.  I got 2 lengua taco.  The taco was filled with tender lengua.  And I love their http://www.eileenlikestoeat.commade tortilla. 




Of course you can't eat the taco plain like that.  There is a little salsa bar with tons of fresh veggies and a few different kinds of salsa.  I got some cucumber, onion, tomato, cilantro and jalapeno for my taco.  Then I picked the green salsa because I thought it didn't look that spicy.  But I thought wrong, way wrong.  This was the spiciest salsa I've ever had.  I wasn't expecting it and took a big bite, too.  OMG!  The heat made me jumped up from my seat!

I really like this taco truck.  The people there are really nice and friendly.  I don't know how late they open till, but I've seen them there after 2am.  Next time I want to try their burrito.
