LA has some of the most unique and amazing food. So much diversity 👍 I love CA

Wow, simply wow! Very tasty idea and an A+ for awesome culinary creativity! For those of us used to a regular al-pastor trompo (always delicious as well) this is a neat idea. Kudos Evil Cooks!

[@cesaramolapizza7480]

Octopus tacos, never had that...I love octopus, I've had Octopus tostadas with imitation crab meat with chopped avocados, cilantro and salsa that were mad good, but not that.

On the Pacific coast this is real popular. Mazatlán to Manzanillo I’ve eaten octopus tacos.
