Porgee's Tacos -- "Historic Filipino Town" (Rampart x Temple(?))
We went to see "Porgy and Bess" at the La Opera. They had an El Cheapo $20/tic special, so we bit. Long story short, we left at intermission, and yes we wish we had instead seen the other El Cheapo option of "The Merry Widow".
So the evening wouldn't be a total loss, we went to the real original Tommy's on Rampart x Beverly. Double cheese b w extra chili for me. Back in the day, we'd stop here after a late night track meet. It was a terrific bonding event. One time I had THREE double cheese b's and STILL was hungry. Sweet Mama got a regular b, but her diet precluded her from anything further. But I digress.
Turning right onto Rampart to find the 101S again, we passed a taco truck in the near corner of a gas station, across from a yellow-signed nightclub. The name? Porgee's!
Obviously this was a sign from whatever deity you do or do not believe in. One big fat U-ey later, we pulled in for "gas" at the pump, while Sweet Mama ordered me up some pastor.
They come naked, so the sauce decision in yours. I go for the green sauce w pork and "sinatr-o" and onions are a must.
All in all, merely ok. More than a bit too crunchy for me. Luckily, Sweet Mama saved 1/2 a carne asada which I liked more. She liked the pastor! Well folks, that's why they give you choices. ; Still, it was the perfect topper to the evening.
The 110S was clear, the 105W was too. And the LAX pylons were lit up like the welcoming beacons that they are.
