Order the carne asada taco at Carnitas Michoacán. Actually, order three or four of them. They're delicious, but rather small, so it might take a few to fill you up. At $1.35 each, though, you can still get a hearty meal for about five bucks. The nachos grande, though a little too cheesy, is excellent as well.
The skinny on this eatery on Broadway in Lincoln Heights is just one of many SoCal hot spots that is worth the crosstown trip -- and easy on the wallet. Want more?
