First of all, I am reviewing "Zamora Bros Carnitas"
located at 1503 Cesar Chavez and the Zamora Bros on Pico and Union
in Los Angeles. Not to be confused with "Zamora Carnitas"
on 4771 East Cesar Chavez or various other wanna be "Zamora's".
<br>
Zamora Bros has the best Carnitas I have ever tried anywhere,
yes even in Mexico. One picks out the meat "al gusto"
which means I get my tray, I pick my meat, I have it weighed, I grab
some tortillas, "bolillo" french bread a la mexican
great for tortas, I grab a fresh salsa, a Jarrito drink and some
sweet bread for dessert and voila, dinner is served!
<br>
The best way to grab authentic Mexican food basics on the go, in
and out in less then 5 minutes and back on the road ready to serve
a warm, authentic meal for dinner that leaves everyone leaving
their plates clean at home!

OK, OK, I know this is not the most authantic of Mexican food, but
it is fast, cheap, and good. What more can one ask? This is not the
location at which I usually eat, but since it's a chain, I
think
the quality is about the same as the other one that I frequent on
Olympic and Sawtelle

Zamora Carnitas is famous for its carnitas, double deep-fried
choice pork. You pick your carnitas yourself from the heated
display. You can also pick your own chicarones, fried pork rinds
like no other. I'm not talking about the dried rinds you find
in supermarkets, these are meaty and juicy. They also have the
dry light colored variety which is good for cooking.
<br>
Zamora also has several other items available deli-style to
go, including tongue, green chile pork , barbacoa---the origin
of the word barbeque---which is barbecued goat, a gamey, an acquired
taste.
<br>
Zamora also makes their own chorizo, which is a bit more spicy
than store bought. Home made Menudo, available weekends only,
is superb.
<br>
There is sit-down service, but Zamora gets very crowded on weekends
so I take my order to go.
You can see the lady at her comal making the thick hand-made corn
tortillas.
