Anyone know of any good spots for real street food at night? not food trucks. I'm talking the ladies who sell out of shopping carts, the night time churches, front yard restaurants etc.

I would say ride around alvarado near wilshire/7th. I always see a lot of street vendors while riding on 7th near MacArthur Park. Also Echo Park Lake during the day (weekends) and at night the Echo Park and Sunset intersection. Let me know if any of these places are good. So far I have only had elotes and fresh fruit from these stands. Since travelling in Asia my love of street food can be expressed by ---> :-O I LOVE STREET FOOD!!
American street food needs to be diversify, good, and affordable. The food truck trend is pretty nice, but the cost seems way too high for everyone to enjoy.

I have had some good stuff on the corner of 6th & Bonnie Brae. There are these ladies with little grills in shopping carts that cook up pretty good combo plates.
We usually ride on Tuesday nights, which is not the most happening night as far as street food.

please do tell. I'd like to link together a bunch of spots to do a ride, especially places that sell unusual things that most people aren't used to i.e. not your standard tacos: mulitas, cemitas, huaraches etc.

The only real street food is literally food discarded in the street. Street grime adds to the flavor.

so much waste in this town that you can find pretty good stuff in the dumpsters.
