Yes, good for the community there!

There are plenty of stories, some old wives tales and others were historical figures. But it was interesting.

I'm sad about it too. I heard that Canada has 400 fires presently, I hope you are safe.

@@c_honda none are near me. Sometimes the air smells a bit smokey, but it's not bad. Lots of rain here, and some flooding at times. Probably from the fires.

Thank you Judy, this place rivals the grandeur of Yosemite.

Thanks UFOBob! You are always such a good sport!

Thank you for watching, and ask them if they worked under the Gar Dunos' name. By the way, there still is a Gar Dunos in Montebello on Beverly Blvd.

Good question. All the Manny's I knew are gone. A few of the places became "Chano's" which seemed to have similar Mexican food. I remember the Manny's in Monterey Park which was super busy at lunch (before then it was an A and W root beer car park.

4504 Floral Dr, Los Angeles 90022 In the video I have a couple of maps showing where the place is. Just a couple streets south is Cesar Chavez Ave. They are right near the onramp to the 710 Fwy heading north, and diagonal to the CHP office.

Some suburbs are still okay, but the homeless situation has really increased. Especially downtown where they put up their tents and authorities later come and take them down.

Tell me about the place?

Thanks Penel, you are a kind support here. And it was a nice day and the ocean and beach were very lovely.

Hey, I think you are right! But it was a long time ago.

I agree with King Taco, but I've only been to a Lupe's in Alhambra, is it the same?

@@c_honda no when you get to Lupe‘s ask for the chili Colorado burrito and the chili Verde they’re both beef the bomb take limes with you. They don’t have limes.

@@petermitlo1551 gracias! Okay, I found it on google, it's pretty close to King Taco on 3rd St. But when I looked at the menu, there's no mention of chili colorado, but they do mention chili verde

They called the burritos, red or green one chili Verde and one is chili Colorado

No, not the Lupe’s in Alhambra East LA third Street where the King tacos at up the street on the same side

You are not that far away. It's a distance for me but I want to return there.

You got it! For that favorite song I got permission from Kenny Roberts also! Thanks for always supporting my videos, I know I don't bat a 1000!

Besides the voice, how was the video? I don't do much voiceovers if I can help it. Thanks for watching!

They are elderly, maybe the best thing is to call ahead and make sure they are there. The couple are the ones that run the place. I always call in my orders now so I can easily pick them up. And, thanks for watching!

Thanks for your review.

Well, it's fair of you to give your opinion, let's others know...

Yes, times have changed. We haven't been there since before the pandemic. I valued it's quiet nature, but I see from social media that it's a "hot" place.

Right on!

I appreciate you checking out my channel and maybe checking out their little place!

UFOBob! Aloha! Thanks for being so supportive. And I think they wanted to check out our meals at the park😅

Have you ever visited here? It's a nice respite from the busier touristy places. And it's not too hard to walk around at either. Thanks for always being supportive!

I hope you get to, but bring mosquito repellent!

It really is, and it's so easy to visit, especially if you are on the North Shore. We took it for granted for so long. Thanks for watching Penel!

I do see some street vendors now, a lot came up during the pandemic I think. I leave it up to them as they are trying to make a living too.

Thanks for your opinion. We enjoyed KK, it just seems crowded a lot. Tip Top is more hole in the wall, but I like that Kauai flavor. i.e. goteborg sausage.

Thank you yes. I did put the address on the map in the video, I don't know if I put it in the description.

It really is! Thanks for watching Bob, and I will not forget this area. We were fortunate to have good weather when there.

Hey, I appreciate you watching! Thank you for that. Someday maybe stop by and try their version of Mexican food.

@@c_honda How was it??

@@malo_213 I like the food, not fancy Mexican food food, but like your abuela makes it. Cheeseburgers pretty good too! Ask for fries to be crunchy

Granted, lots of Hawaii is truly beautiful. But this part of Canada is exceptionally nice. Miles and miles of forests and mountain ranges.

Well penel, this is your country and I have seen so much natural beauty there. The closest that I've been to you is Niagara Falls. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for the comparisons! This can open our eyes to some more places in LA County which are worth checking out. You have an assortment of them across that area. Helpful, thank you!

@c_honda I love food lol, try titos market in el monte, great Argentinian empanadas.

@@vicchavez6570 thank you for sharing! For myself and others benefit.

I don't even remember what they have, but if you want the "mexican" coke, I think they had it in their refrigerator, but it was the glass bottle version.

@@c_honda No, it’s just, if I go there for a meal, I want a coke with that meal. They have a fridge and could likely sell me a can or bottle. However, If I pay a stupid price for a can or bottle, it’s unpleasant. If I then have to worry about only having this one little can or bottle, it’s unpleasant. If I want more and have to decide if I’ll pay a stupid price for more or do without, it’s unpleasant. If they had a fountain and I could just pay them, say $2 for a soda knowing I could fill it up as many times as necessary, much more pleasant experience.

@@hemaccabe4292 , got it. Yeah, this is a tiny business, it may not be the place for you, but there’s lots of bigger restaurants in the area!

@@c_honda It was still a very good video.

@@hemaccabe4292 , I appreciate your words. Thank you.

Oh Mr UFOBob, how are you doing? I hope the weather is not too tough for you. The warmer weather is helping you, maybe yourself and the home issue?

Thank you for your concern. Though the weather has warmed up a bit, it’s not too bad so far. Overall I am feeling well, however, I am fighting the flu at the moment, and that has taken some of the wind out of my sails. But I expect to recover in soon, so nothing to be concerned about.

@@UFOBobTV glad to hear that.

Thanks for watching, please have an open mind, it's more on the 'home style' Mex food.

I understand what you mean, there are some areas I would not go, especially in the night. Downtown has really increased in homelessness, which is sad, for them and us. In that way, there is some uncertainty when you walk by, most are harmless, but others have some real mental problems. However, we have lots of places that we still enjoy. I need to take my chances and go to the East LA King Taco😎!

​@c_honda LA is not dangerous. The homelessness issue has improved over the last year as well. Only very small areas are sketchy. Places like Skid Row. East LA is fine, and so is the vast majority of the city, which is 500 square miles.

​@mrxman581 that is not what my family says who still live and work in the area.

​@@user-rp9om3pr6g It depends on where and when you go. East LA is not dirty like West LA. I'm not extremely familiar with LA, but if you go east of the 6th Street bridge, which turns into Whittier Blvd. It is much cleaner than west of the 6th Street bridge, which is very dirty. The difference is literally like night and day. Every inch of West LA is sliced up into gang territories. I'm sure East LA is as well, but it's so much cleaner and just more calm. Whittier Blvd. Looks nice at night.

It may look a little different, but the food is the same: delicious! thanks for watching!

@c_honda I remember those potatoes! Ever since moving to Nevada 38 yrs ago rarely get that way anymore.

@@scottrunnels3958 they are still so good, crispy and cheesy on the outside, softer mashed inside with flavors I don’t know what they are 😆

Thanks for watching, yes we also enjoy this store. Nowadays, the 'upscale' ones have lots of food available, both on hand or to order. I didn't cover that part at all.

I'm glad you mentioned that! That is a very good idea, I find it hard to find 'Hawaii made' items though, I suppose some of the smaller stores, craft fairs or maybe at the swap meet. I agree that buying local is good.

That's the benefit of getting non perishable gifts, you can keep them and enjoy the memories. Hey thanks Penel for watching my silly videos!

Us too! Thanks for watching! This couple works so hard to keep the place going.

Hey, thanks for watching! It's the still shots that show the upcoming terminal, the videos obviously, are the current building.

Thank you so much for your support!

It will look better, for sure.

Yeah Bruce, that won't change. I was so impressed when Lihue airport went to the walk on terminal gates. So much easier!
