Only read, like, the the first sentence of the link, but, if it’s Sonora-style, I think we should page @Dommy, too. 
The Salazar family has moved the shop down the road to 3457 Fletcher, though they might make an appearance from time to time.

Oh no page required. I can’t wait to go! I’ve been waiting for something like this El Gallo Grill 2.0 failed to live up to expectations. It may not be within the week, but it will be soon.

Real Horchata can be pricy. Especially if you make it yourself with almonds and milk. The mix most people use is just powdered milk with sugar, cinnamon artificial flavors and thickeners.
$12 seems to be the going rate for cocktails anyway. If it was indeed made with housemade Horchata, I would try it.
–Dommy!
And a $12 jamaica with a bunch of booze. And it was gdamn yum. Open. Now. Pro tip: parking on Crystal St. When Fruitdale gets full.

LOL!! You see to me, Jamaica is just over sweetened tea. Give me a well made Horchata anyday.
Jamaica is to Horchata as Vodka is to Bourbon.
–Dommy!
Can’t comment on the alcohol, but I totally agree w/ the Jamaica = oversweetened tea! Love a real horchata…
TonyC is this place gonna be really cold in winter? Trying to wrap my head around a place this outdoors…
Heaters.

Idunno. They have soooooo many heat lamps but… I’m “genuinely” worried the models and screenwriters of silver lake might all freeze in October, cause #LA. The alternative seems to be a “jacket”.
I think the idea is that everyone will be lit after 5 horchata cocktails, or just passed out on the floor? Perhaps @ronsilverado can chime in.
Anyway, see y’all there tomorrow. The tepache should be strained and chilled by then. I’m telling myself it’s ok to pound this cause: Mexican kombucha.
