Cuisine Amériques - Caraïbes Route 66

It's hard to miss the fluorescent graffiti that covers the front of this Mexican taco restaurant. Once inside, the decor does not disappoint and goes hand in hand with the exterior. Here, the tacos take center stage: with fish, vegetables or meat... A dozen varieties are offered, so don't hesitate to order an assortment to taste as many as possible! They are all delicious and at affordable prices. There is a cocktail bar upstairs and an outdoor patio, perfect for the nice days.

Triple George is the casual grill for the chic residents of Las Vegas, and has been for decades; the black and white photos on the walls attest to this. In a nice authentic setting, you sit in a wooden booth or at the big circular bar to eat good pieces of meat. One of the best restaurants in Downtown, we recommend you come at lunchtime rather than in the evening: the prices are much more affordable and the menu offers more choices, among which is a large selection of appetizing burgers.

A more Mexican restaurant? Do you misunderstand! In this small shop there is a kitchen in northern Mexico, different from the rest of the country. The tortilla is made from flour (not maize) and is very fine, and there is also a certain resemblance to the French pancakes. The leaders of the Sonora region are also known to cook the country's best asada meat. It can be said that reputation is respected with meat cooked with a delicious wood fire. For a first one we recommend the very tempting Bean & Cheese Burrito. A superb address for a quick lunch in a family atmosphere.

Puck has cooked for several American presidents.

The kitchen isn't what distinguishes this restaurant from the gastronomic stage in L.A. It is a mixture of traditional architecture and typical Hollywood stories that make the best of Musso & Frank. It was one of the favourite places of Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. If it is not so frequented by stars, it remains in memories as an old Hollywood institution. Cocktails are also a good argument for coming here. You are discouraged from tasting vegetables or talking with old servers; on the other hand, let's go to the bar where you will certainly enjoy more.

Walking into a shopping mall, you'd never expect to come across an address like this. But this restaurant has a simple concept: everything here is homemade, using seasonal produce.

A meal at Fogo de Chão is the promise of a feast. This Brazilian restaurant offers a wide selection of meats: filet mignon, lamb, pork chops, or chicken surrounded by bacon served with steak...

A true angeleno institution since its opening in 1908 by the French Philippe Mathieu, this great dinner has been located since the 1950 s at the gates of Chinatown. Its specialty is the French dipped sandwich, a sandwich lightly wet in the juice of meat whose bread is garned (beef, lamb, turkey, choice). Philippe Mathieu, in 1918, accidentally dropped the bread of the sandwich he was preparing in the oven sauce; the client, a policeman, decided to eat it anyway. Amazed by the taste of this failed sandwich, he came back the next day with a group of friends to ask for a sandwich soaked in the meat juice… the legend was born. Nothing good gastronomic in the old fast food, but the salads of macaroni or potatoes, the soup soups or broken peas, Caesar salads, the inevitable coffee juice and the famous sandwiches are true diner classic. The American way of life optimistic and good child of the 1950 s. The apple pie (apple pie), another classic of this address, is a simple and comforting regal.

Opened in 2000 by local residents, The Kitchen reflects the diversity and energy of Silver Lake. The goal: to make guests feel at home, with fresh, homemade comfort food .

Other dishes on the menu include fried chicken, mussels and French fries, and fish and chips. A particularly warm welcome.

This Brazilian barbecue is probably one of the most popular spots at The Original Farmers Market, as evidenced by the lineup. And for good reason, the meat grilled on rotisseries is tasty. Picanha - a little-known cut of beef, typical of Brazil and Portugal -, spicy chicken legs, pork loin, leg of lamb... A 100% carnivorous place where you can eat by the kilo - or at least by the pound, equivalent to about 450 grams.

Located in the heart of Santa Monica, this gastropub with its chic, warm and subdued wood-panelled décor is the perfect place to sip a cocktail while waiting to be served fresh, well-prepared food made from local produce. Once the aperitif is over, don't forget to accompany your meal with a good glass of Californian wine, whose selection made by The Misfit is particularly interesting. However, beware: being quite popular, the establishment can be too noisy for some.

Coffee infused with cinnamon: that's the morning aroma of Monte Alban, which seems to come straight from Oaxaca, Mexico. The specialties of this southern Mexican city are prepared with care. Special mention must be made of the mole negro - a sauce made from many ingredients - and the enfrijoladas, a colorful blend of beans, chicken and typical Mexican sauce - available in a choice of black, yellow, green or red. And don't miss the homemade guacamole, ideal for whetting your appetite.

Opened in 1934, this little shack at the end of Olvera Street is famous for its taquitos, fluted tortillas filled with red beans and cheese, all accompanied by the house's signature avocado sauce. A treat! Other alternatives: tamales and burritos. While a few tables and chairs are available for customers on the side, it can also be nice to eat while walking between the stalls on the pedestrianized street. On weekdays, the surrounding workers flock here for lunch, so be sure to allow time to wait.

A break away from the crowd on Hollywood Boulevard in the trendy, trendy and trendy Boutique Inn of Mama Shelter. On the menu, a beautiful menu of sandwiches, salads and bowls at the varied filling, evening of meat or fish dishes.

Vincent is first and foremost a restaurant with an excellent wine list and serves platters of local cheeses for aperitifs. It is also the favourite place for young couples from the neighbourhood to dine. This charming neighbourhood bistro is located in a small, discreet street perpendicular to North Clark Street. Its cuisine is American with European influences. We like the simplicity of the dishes and the generous cuisine. Cheese platters are a must but also try duck confit or steak with shallots and mushrooms for example.

In the Lake View district, this restaurant, with its pub atmosphere, good-natured atmosphere and dimmed lights, hides its game well because it is also a good gastro table that has even been rewarded with a gourmet Bib from the Michelin guide. You can enjoy small dishes that come in the form of elaborate but consistent tapas. Everything is based on seasonal, organic and fresh ingredients. The menu changes regularly but when we were here, the pork shoulder and mushroom pasta were a delight. A sure bet for your taste buds!
