hungry?: Malo Mondays

we have a weekly(ish) tradition in my group of friends.  my pal mary kate invited me to taco night at malo a while back, and i became instantly hooked.  i mean, take a look at their monday menu:

SERIOUSLY.  every monday, they have their taco night where you order each taco individually, each ranging from $1-$5, and with nightly drink specials as well as their chips and salsa ($4) and a side of guacamole for the avocado lovers at the table ($4), it was a done deal.  so my friends maddie, braden, and ingrid decided to come join evans and i (unfortunately our fearless leader couldn't attend this particular day) on a monday at malo, and i have documented the evidence.

 exhibit A: chips (crispy and chewy....the chewy are difficult to explain...

but one bite will leave you hooked!), 

serrano salsa, and guacamole.

we then ordered our tacos:

i cleaned off two soyrizo and was working on a chicken-jack cheese hardshell

maddie was working on a chicken hardshell and two soft chicken tacos

braden selected two beef and pickle hardshells with a carne asada.

my total price?  $6  there is a catch at Malo though-the service can be terrible, the attitude of the hostess was completely uncalled for on this day, and the parking situation is tricky.  street parking is a bitch and valet is now $4 and you MUST get it validated....this is new and a terrible process.  i was severely disappointed the last time i went.  however, do not be discouraged, readers....i'm hoping they get the system fixed soon, because the tacos really are delicious and one of LA's best deals.

to recap:
