Carnitas De Puerco @ Presidente Restaurant
CARNITAS DE PUERCO
Presidente Restaurant, Los Angeles
It is with great sadness that I post this review. This restaurant had THE BEST carnitas for at least 20 years. You can look at my past reviews and see that the current version looks very different. The meat was fried harder and the pieces were thinner. Some of the pieces were a little bit thicker and okay, but overall the quality was drastically below what it had always been. I know that Presidente changed ownership a while ago and I'd heard people complain that they changed recipes... but the last time I had this dish, it was pretty close to what it had always been. This time, however, I need to drop it down from its number two spot on my list. I would hope that this was a bad night and not the new norm, but can I really order it again knowing what I know?
