Carnitas El Artista
Carnitas El Artista is a Michoacán-style carnitas shop on North La Brea Avenue in Inglewood, California, run by Gustavo Chavez.
Overview
Time Out credits Gustavo Chavez with the business and lists it among the 33 best tacos in Los Angeles. Its Inglewood location sets it apart from the cluster of carnitas specialists on the Eastside, such as Carnitas El Momo and Los Cinco Puntos.
Menu
Pork is cooked in the Michoacán manner, slowly in fat, and served in tacos, burritos and platters.
Coverage
Time Out lists the menu as covering tacos, burritos and platters, so the carnitas can be ordered either wrapped in a tortilla or served on a plate. The shop is one of the few Inglewood businesses in Time Out's taco list, alongside the Inglewood branch of Asadero Chikali in other publications' guides.
