Cielito Lindo

Aurora Guerrero left the rural mountain village of Huanusco, Zacatecas, Mexico in the late 1920's. She worked on several recipes and in 1934 finally developed her own style of home-made taquitos with guacamole sauce. For almost 100 years, Cielito Lindo has been selling "Grama" Aurora Guerrero's taquitos with guacamole sauce, which have delighted generations of local customers as well as visitors to Olvera Street from all parts of the world. Over the years this Los Angeles tradition has remained unchanged and is still a perfect combination of simple and wholesome ingredients.
