The writers at Forbes, who reference Los Angeles as a "sea-side city," have deemed that the best kind of street food offered here are fish tacos. Forget burritos, Portland nabs that. Forget the eclectic assortment of non-traditional street food like Kogi BBQ, the Green Truck, Sprinkles, etc. Seattle wins that category. And forget all the reindeer sausage that lines L.A. streets--Anchorage Alaska wins that. Here's what Forbes has to say: "This sea-side city’s most ubiquitous street food is a fairly recent creation. Fish tacos—fried fish wrapped in corn tortillas and topped with a variety of creamy sauces—were introduced to Los Angeles in the 1980s. Since then their popularity has spanned all classes of dining establishments, from high-end to fusion, though arguably the best ones to be had are still off the street." They recommend taco trucks on Olympic Boulevard east of Downtown L.A. and, of course, The Best Fish Taco in Ensenada in Los Feliz. What do you think? Comment below...
