Los Gallos get down

Went to Los Gallos tonight with a co-worker. It's been a minute since i've been there. Picante's has been my jam as of recent (when i can afford it of course). I usually don't have any problems with this place. Tonight's only real problem was that the food took forever. I guess our receipt never came out in the kitchen, so it took a while. I forgot to specify my type of beans tonight, so i got refried, which i am a fan of. I usually try to get whole beans to be on the safe side because some places use lard in their refried beans. This place has a sign up that says they only use lard in their carnitas. The burrito was pretty good overall. I got rice, beans, tomatoes, avocado (not guacamole), and cilantro. I also got an horchata. it was pretty good, a little thin, but still good. I don't know that this place uses powdered milk in their rice drink. Since there is a bit of a language barrier with taquerias, you might take a risk with some of the food since you didn't make it yourself or see it being made. I usually like to get a juice mix here. They have a good orange/ carrot juice mix. This place has been scratched off the list as far as my co-worker and myself. Next is La Pinata just around the corner from Los Gallos. "For those of you that don't habla espanol, 'la pinata' is spanish for.... the pinata."
