It's like drinking by yourself. She 336 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 2: has just found a little, a little place for herself. 337 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 2: This tamaal with the corn tom is I mean, it's 338 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 2: one of my favorites there anyways, But to be eating 339 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 2: it today is not how I expected today to go. 340 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 2: But I'm thrilled that you brought it. Tell us a 341 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: little bit about this dish. 342 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 3: The green corn tamala is a lot of extra work. 343 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 3: It's special, it's sweet. It doesn't taste like any typical tomali. 344 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 3: I like all tamali's, but this is very unique. I've 345 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 3: often said too, it would make a great eye dish 346 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 3: if you were serving ham. Oh yes, it would be great. 347 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 3: And so it's versatile. And I will also say it 348 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 3: is one of our items that freezes beautifully. 349 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 4: We have shipped them before and you can. 350 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: Freeze the great for that and you wait. 351 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 3: Six months and you take that out on a cold day, 352 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 3: a green corn to Mollie. Oh yeah, so that's another 353 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 3: unique feature. 354 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 2: I think a hot tip on this too. You take 355 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 2: it out, you after it's been in the fridge and 356 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 2: you take it out and you steam it just a 357 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 2: little bit. You can even microwave it in a wet towel, 358 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 2: and you take it out. You put some butter on 359 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 2: your kamala on your your flat top, and you see 360 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 2: her off both sides of it. Then you make a 361 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,640 Speaker 2: fried egg and you put it on top of it, 362 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 2: and you've got breakfast. 363 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 4: I like it. I was just gonna say, I like 364 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 4: it for breakfast. 365 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they're great. As a matter of fact. 366 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 2: If you you chopped up ham and put it in there, 367 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 2: it's breakfast already there. 368 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 3: You know what you're Oh, yeah, well you don't. 369 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: You don't get fat by not having ideas about food 370 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 2: day at night. I am like, ultimately, I'll wake up 371 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 2: and I'll tell my wife, who's not a big eater. 372 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 2: I'm like, I just thought of a gory combination. She's all, 373 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 2: you know, she doesn't eat red meat or anything. I'm like, 374 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 2: I just thought, now she would love this. As a 375 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,959 Speaker 2: matter of fact, I think we've had it there before, 376 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 2: and we didn't live far. We lived in Hollywood when 377 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 2: we first got married. I moved in the day we 378 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 2: got married and moved in with her there on gardener 379 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 2: and sunset. So yeah, we weren't far back then. Yeah, 380 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 2: so it was always a really easy place for us 381 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 2: to go and enjoy ourselves. And it's just quintessential Los Angeles. 382 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 2: So you've got the festivities going, the lights, the color 383 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: people adding fun things. You've got the gift window and 384 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 2: all of those things. If somebody has never been to 385 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 2: Al Coyote, how do you tell them to experience? What 386 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 2: should they order? You know, where should they sit? What 387 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 2: are some hot tips? 388 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 5: Well, I have pretty strong opinions on this. She'll disagree 389 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 5: in some areas. 390 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 6: But if. 391 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 2: You've never been just agreed with you about disagreeing with you. 392 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: No, I won't. You're a contraryan, No, I'm not. 393 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 5: I try and eat a lot of Mexican food and 394 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 5: try different things different places. I judge kind of everything 395 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 5: on what is our number one, which is a cheese 396 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 5: enchilada tread to beef taco rice and beans. 397 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 6: If you like that, If. 398 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 5: You like the taco inchilada, rice and beans and you 399 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 5: come in, I would highly recommend that's what to get. 400 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 5: If you don't like that, then El Coyote may not 401 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 5: be the best place for you, because we do that 402 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,199 Speaker 5: to me better than anyone. 403 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 6: It's delicious. Throw on margarita depends. 404 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 5: Do you like the really the flavors of tequila, Then 405 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 5: get a margarita made from scratcher with tequila of your 406 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 5: choice if you like it a little on the sweeter side, 407 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 5: with a little a little more sugar fruit forward kind 408 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 5: of thing.

People 423 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 5: come a little bit to have a margarita and a 424 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 5: number one, but also they come to Margie, whether it's 425 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 5: after a wedding, after a funeral, after a baptism, after 426 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 5: fourth whatever it may be.

You never need to eat anywhere else. That's ALKI. 435 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,239 Speaker 5: That's wonderful, but it's probably not super realistic, whereas I 436 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 5: try and be a little bit more of the realistic. 437 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 5: And I think everything we do is pretty good, and 438 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 5: there's some things we do better than others. But she's 439 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 5: very partial as you can tell, and born and raised 440 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 5: and she everything's perfect and we try to make everything perfect. 441 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 6: But it's not always that way. 442 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 2: But sometimes it's the sound of the orchestra, not one 443 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 2: in particular, you know, flute or string, or there's something 444 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 2: about the magic of it all coming together in the location, 445 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 2: with the family, with the people and the fl that 446 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 2: what you No one can duplicate that because it's like 447 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 2: an individual person.
