Fat Burrito Made with Love and in East L.A.

East L.A., what is it known for? Primarily good Mexican food. Sure, this one is a 'hole in the wall' spot, but Gerson and Celia Montes have been at this restaurant for 31 years. They know what they are doing.
It's not a fancy place but the atmosphere is friendly and the food tastes homemade, like your abuelita cooked for you. The prices are reasonable and at times the breakfast burritos are ready to go.
They open early, 5:30am through 4pm on Tues-Sat. If you know what you want, call ahead! 4505 Floral Drive, Los Angeles CA 90022
This is how Mexican rice should be: flavorful and fluffy, and refried beans: tasty and filling. Try it out for yourself. They include their handmade sauces: red and green. These run pretty spicey, but are just right to give the tacos or burritos the punch that they need! Also the beans are good, half smashed, half full and I believe they taste the old fashioned way because of lard. (Do the research, lard is not as harmful as thought. In moderation, of course.)
Congratulations to Gerson and Celia for recently having their 54th Anniversary!
