@@Travis3500 its not. Look around. Hard working industries or jobs dont have a certain type of people. You rarely see asians or black in construction. Each for different reasons… yall keep denying reality lmao
@@GreNasX3 Bro are you serious… Honda, Toyota, BMW and other car manufacturers hire educated professionals with experience for a job that doesn’t require the company to go out of business because somebody the company hired doesn’t have the knowledge or skill set the companies have in place that make them stand out from other car manufacturers Same goes for family owned restaurants They wouldn’t allow somebody to come in and destroy what generations have built and establish themselves., That’s what hard work and determination accomplish
Hard working Family. I cried tears for pops. He was raised differently. He built a billion dollar dream for his family and the legacy keeps on. Very admiral
billion? open your eyes. if it was a billion they wouldnt be using makeshift kitchens. Its enough for all of them to live in LA though which is still pretty good!
@@NagashiChidorii you're not thinking big enough. A billion in his family being good for life! Not the money amount. The fact he got all his family working together and being together for the cause. It's rare that family even sticks together these days
im a chef, I worked mostly in fine dining but since covid I branched out and started a business, I work for myself. Watching this, I have tears in my eyes man. Its just so beautiful to see the support from the family, the customers and the internet. As you can see, this type of work is not easy and like the son said at the beginning "its all about consistency".. I couldnt agree more that is what its all about when it comes to selling/serving food and it is also the hardest part about doing this work. Anyone can cook great food once, but doing it every single day, day after day is not easy, not one bit. My respects to the whole family, this the shtt right here
I was raised 3 blocks away from there the spot ! Really nice people, we got free tacos to try out. Gotta love the struggle and the determination. Hard place to grow up but you see the love in the neighborhood.
Learn more from growing up in that environment than you ever would in a ritzy wealthy neighborhood. The street smarts and life skills you learn are invaluable.
Seeing an entire family put in the work to make dreams come true is unbelievable. Made me tear up when talking with the parents and how proud of their kids and grandkids they were. Truly an American dream come true with hard work.
It’s awesome to see a young generation to continue a tradition. These men your recording are a definition of real men working hard and carrying a tradition. And even the younger men are out there helping out. Now and days it’s hard getting teens out of bed because online devices. These guys are doing something right for the future
This is the true American Dream. Not just the food, but the fact that their entire family being involved in it, and the love, respect, and reverence they all have for those who have come before them. Very touching.
This is such a fantastic episode, man. Love seeing the behind-the-scenes of a family business like this and the way they make the food with love. You're such a master at showcasing these stories. Great to see you back!
When he talked about his grandfather's cooking being, "One next level." That's how I feel about my grandmother's tortillas. Hers was just on another level.
We remember my grandmas tortillas and beans as the best we've ever had. Shes still alive but too old to cook these days so we've tried to replicate her beans (she says she just used lard) and her flour tortillas but man, as good as they are, theyre just not as delicious as I remember my grandmas. I used to eat 15 bean burritos in one sitting I kid you not.
Grandfather had decades to perfect. The experience cannot be replaced. However, the learning process can be accelerated. Now, It takes only a few months to cook and prepare like the legendaries
Listening to Billy talk about what he's done and he's doing in such a humble way is inspiring. Hearing him talk about the dificulties in having the right mind set and pressing through with a clear objective is also very motivational. Best of luck and much success.
I don't know how you didn't end up with a wife, I've been blessed to travel the US and Mexico as a guy from the farmlands of Pennsylvania and I'm here to say I've never been more loved and appreciated by a Mexican American woman. I understand that I came from a completely different area almost world but, learning the language I found out how much I had in common. Beautiful people and stunning women who are godly that appreciate family. God bless the working class
What strikes me is the statement that the grandmother said “everything is made with love and the people follow.” I can only imagine what it truly feels to be apart of such a close knit family. God bless this family. It’s truly touching and heart get
Man I love Mexicans!, they bless and enrich this our common experience!. Grandpa sits like a contented Buddha with a most infectious smile that shines!
This was beautiful to watch! So cool to see the love and dedication that goes into it. I’ll be checking out tacos el momo tomorrow for sure!. Grandpa is so sweet 🥹
From going door to door selling carnitas to having the customers come to you is an impressive and inspiring story. Definitely something to be proud of but at 21:20 when you mentioned his loved ones and he smiled ear to ear you can tell that's what's its all about for him 😊
These people are the true American Dreamers ❤❤❤ Hard workers, Loving people and they are NOT cry babies ❤ God bless all of you and many blessings to your families ❤
I grew up in Santa Barbara and my Dad would come down to LA to teach English to the workers in the garment district and at the Firestone Tire Plant. He would bring back carnitas he got from Sēnor Acosta almost every time. I still make the trip to El Tacos Momo whenever I can. The best and the chicharron is #1... Great vlog, can't wait for more!!! 👍👍👍
Gareth, I don't comment very much on videos, but I must say, sharing the stories of people in this way is very moving and genuine. Keep doing what you are doing!
Dude! TH-cam recommended me this video. I watched every minute of it. I’m from Croatia, Europe. Such a fantastic authentic family story. I love it. Can’t wait to visit LA and try it myself. I used to work on cruise ships as a photographer so travelled a bit of the world, tried a lot authentic mexican food in Mexico. This video makes me to just hop on a plane and try this tacos! 🔥
I had the pleasure to try the carnitas in 2020 at their original location and it was a great experience. The family is very nice and super hardworking.the carnitas were one of the best I have tried and not overcharged like most places. If I ever go back to LA I would def stop by again.i wish them all the success because they truly deserve it.
The moment with the grandparents at about 21:00 was amazing. You did such a thoughtful and respectful job of drawing out their story. That will stick with me for a very long time. Bravo! ❤
But there's lots of different immigrant food in America with african and Asian being the healthiest idk why alot of Americans don't like eating healthy
@@Shel230There is a way to eat healthy Mexican food and people prefer Mexican food because it tastes better to the majority of people. That’s why there is Mexican markets and taco trucks and taquerias on every single corner. There are a decent amount of Asian spots too though but not as many and as far as African places, I’ve never seen one of those in California for the most part.
@@James_Edward59 no they just get the same thing every time tacos or enchiladas most Americans aren't eating authentic Mexican food and definitely not healthy Mexican food and there's a reason why the obesity rate and colon cancer rate is sky rocketing in mexico and America
Gareth, what an awesome family story. Something about family working together and carrying on the legacy their Grandfather and great grandfather before worked so hard to be a success. Tacos El MoMo. Praying that the beautiful Father recovers completely. His wife is soò sweet. The Mexican market loked like TJ. I lived in TJ back in the day. Loved it and we are going to try Tacos El MoMo on our way down south to retire. Good to see you doing well Gareth. Thanks for this incredible blog. Se you next time.🎉🎉😂
This wonderful familia makes me feel good! Great video Gareth. I enjoy all your videos and the connection these people have with their family and neighbors is priceless! I was born in LA in 58 but we moved to Chula Vista in 1962. I'm old now but I'm going up there soon! I gotta see these fine people and enjoy their tacos. My wife Juanita love buches so it's a must go trip! Muchisimas Gracias!
Hey Gareth, I’m really glad this video was suggested. I admire the way you were able to bring out the family's story. Very inspirational TH-cam content. I hope we can eventually move our channel in that direction. Keep up the great work.
A great family business, and a true American story! Bravo to this family for their hard work, their love, and for adding their particular spice in the mixing pot we call The United States. Grandpa must be so very proud.
Im from the East Coast and after wacthing and understanding the rich history of this family business, I defitinely wanna support that. Plus the Little Mexico market looks dope.
I had to save this video to my "Happy Favorites" Library here on YT!... I felt so in the moment, so into the mix, part of the grind and definitely one of the family!... Such an awesome video Bruh and I truly admire & respect everyone in it!... 💯💯💯
Such strong hard workers who have such love and pride for their carnitas and especially each other! No words! Just awesome! They work so hard and have a strong bond
Watching this video about taco street vendors in Los Angeles was truly inspiring. It's incredible to see how these families come together, passing down their knowledge and culinary traditions from generation to generation. Their dedication to serving delicious food while preserving their heritage is not only commendable but also a beautiful testament to the resilience and strength of the Latino community. Thank you for sharing this glimpse into their world.
beautiful family. hard working and proud . Seeing a family build something that started with their tata is inspiring. The love for what they do for a living is admirable. Waking up at 1 am to start the cooking process for the weekend with a smile on your face must feel good. Hope nothing but success for y'all
I love this cooking video behind the scenes because you can see the passion they have to cook. Especially them appreciating there grandparents. Good job !
I really like the intro shot appearing at about :41. We see a shrine to Jesus and ancient warriors and heroes, next to some the practical supplies. And a bouquet, to honor it all.
Growing up in a family business I can tell you it’s one of the hardest jobs but the most rewarding. Serving smiles good food and good vibes is the best feeling in the world. Sadly COVID took my parent’s shop out of business but it’s taught me many lessons about the business and contributing to society. Mom and pop shops are dying due to high costs so please support your locals
As someone that was born and raised in the USA, I would give my shirt off my back for this family.....Good people and good food = Happiness....Thanks for sharing!
@@mynameisearl7537 why even reply? You are NOT part of this!! Dude or duddette no disrespect but you REALLY need a brush up on social cues. Please 🙏🏽 get help. Stay off the raza comments! Love is thicker than blood 🩸 but some of us are proud of both. Just shhhhh
@@mynameisearl7537Nothing wrong with having pride in your ethnicity, I don’t blame you for taking pride in being Italian and wanting to be more Italian because that’s how I feel about being Mexican. I love being Mexican especially because we have Mexico right next door and especially here in CA, our culture is on every single street.
I traveled all the way to LA from Mpls, MN to try carnitas el momo.. some of the best carnitas I’ve had in my life!! I’ve also tried them in Mexico, where my family’s from & they’re just as good. True talent and hard work in this family !!
Hey @GarethLeonard So, This was my first time seeing any of your content, ever. The video randomly popped up on my feed so I decided to give it a watch and im so happy that i did. I'm a fan of Carnitas El Momo, I've eaten their tacos before and seen/read/heard their story told thru other channels and I can easily say that this is the best one I've seen, full stop. Your video brought me to tears. Just wanted to thank you for the video and give you serious props on your awesome storytelling, pacing, editing, etc, etc, etc. Idk how the fuuuuuuck I've never seen your stuff before and I'm hating TH-cam for not recommending your channel earlier. Just subbed, happy to start watching and supporting!
There’s a lot of love, respect and knowledge that come from watching my Abuelita, Tias and Mi Mama cooking. I always say made with love. I am the 4th generation to learn my Families recipes and now sharing the knowledge with my Niece so she can learn as the 5th generation and cook for her Family and hand them down to her Children our 6th generation. I relate to this lovely Family sharing the knowledge and history that’s been handed down.
I am proud to be Mexican. Seeing my heritage work as hard as they do to be successful makes me so proud. Thank you so much for sharing their story. I hope one day, I get to faste their delicious food. May GOD continue to bless them. Sending Love & Light. Gracias por enseñar su historia.
In a day and age of hustle culture, working hard to provide a good honest product is so rare. Building up a business over generations, putting people over profit. It's special

Mucho gusto to the Momo familia. BORN in El Monte CA. RAISED in San Jose CA. Good shit on you for showcasing the Hispanic community.
just subscribed I fuxx with this vid, ill make sure to check out the other bro,
Wgat is a libre and why is it $20?
Go to CEMITAS LOS CHIVOS in EAST LA. It is really popular
Seeing people that work hard and not only don't complain about it but seem to enjoy it makes me happy
Viva mexican cabrones
That's like every immigrant in the usa
Complaining is an American culture.
@@Shel230exactly , it’s only rare for America to see anyone work to live because Americans are lazy af!
They are aliens who should go back to where they came from.

Is it hard to get a job to work there

Bro are you serious…
Honda, Toyota, BMW and other car manufacturers hire educated professionals with experience for a job that doesn’t require the company to go out of business because somebody the company hired doesn’t have the knowledge or skill set the companies have in place that make them stand out from other car manufacturers
Same goes for family owned restaurants
They wouldn’t allow somebody to come in and destroy what generations have built and establish themselves.,
That’s what hard work and determination accomplish
Who’s the grandson tho
Holy! Now that's a REAL family business. The whole crew is legit family, beautiful to see. Inspiring honestly.
Beautiful

they get better and better. now birria is a huge hit.
Best tacos outside of Mexico.

Growing up in a family business I can tell you it’s one of the hardest jobs but the most rewarding. Serving smiles good food and good vibes is the best feeling in the world. Sadly COVID took my parent’s shop out of business but it’s taught me many lessons about the business and contributing to society. Mom and pop shops are dying due to high costs so please support your locals
Muchas gracias Gareth, loved this vid. My tios used to have this type of business in LA also.
As someone that was born and raised in the USA, I would give my shirt off my back for this family.....Good people and good food = Happiness....Thanks for sharing!
Nothing better than being 💯 mexicano!!! Es un orgullo!!
I'm of an Italian father and and mexican mother and I think that beats being full on mexican to be real I wish i was full on Italian
@@mynameisearl7537 why even reply? You are NOT part of this!! Dude or duddette no disrespect but you REALLY need a brush up on social cues. Please 🙏🏽 get help. Stay off the raza comments! Love is thicker than blood 🩸 but some of us are proud of both.
Just shhhhh
@@mynameisearl7537Nothing wrong with having pride in your ethnicity, I don’t blame you for taking pride in being Italian and wanting to be more Italian because that’s how I feel about being Mexican. I love being Mexican especially because we have Mexico right next door and especially here in CA, our culture is on every single street.

wtf are you talking about lol
I traveled all the way to LA from Mpls, MN to try carnitas el momo.. some of the best carnitas I’ve had in my life!! I’ve also tried them in Mexico, where my family’s from & they’re just as good. True talent and hard work in this family !!
Hey @GarethLeonard
So, This was my first time seeing any of your content, ever. The video randomly popped up on my feed so I decided to give it a watch and im so happy that i did. I'm a fan of Carnitas El Momo, I've eaten their tacos before and seen/read/heard their story told thru other channels and I can easily say that this is the best one I've seen, full stop. Your video brought me to tears.
Just wanted to thank you for the video and give you serious props on your awesome storytelling, pacing, editing, etc, etc, etc. Idk how the fuuuuuuck I've never seen your stuff before and I'm hating TH-cam for not recommending your channel earlier. Just subbed, happy to start watching and supporting!
I moved to Ireland 2 1/2 years ago from California and this is just making me miss tacos even more these look beautiful
Are there tacos in Ireland?
Nothing better than love,family,hard work and great food.
Awesome video Gareth, thank you 😮👍
A lot of love in this family and they put love into the cooking as well. No surprise its so good. Hard work and I am sure its paying.
6:57 He done said it now.
There’s a lot of love, respect and knowledge that come from watching my Abuelita, Tias and Mi Mama cooking. I always say made with love. I am the 4th generation to learn my Families recipes and now sharing the knowledge with my Niece so she can learn as the 5th generation and cook for her Family and hand them down to her Children our 6th generation. I relate to this lovely Family sharing the knowledge and history that’s been handed down.
Ay ay ay Gareth, it is 8am, and I am watching you eat those tacos.🤤🤤🤤Great content. Abrazos!🙌
That market looked amazing!!!. Everyone is so friendly and generous. I love Mexicans and Italians when it comes to family traditions!!!
I love this video 🇲🇽 💪🏽
I am proud to be Mexican. Seeing my heritage work as hard as they do to be successful makes me so proud. Thank you so much for sharing their story. I hope one day, I get to faste their delicious food. May GOD continue to bless them. Sending Love & Light. Gracias por enseñar su historia.
In a day and age of hustle culture, working hard to provide a good honest product is so rare. Building up a business over generations, putting people over profit. It's special
Abuela gave a beautiful expression of the significance of all this
