I Thought Carne Asada was Spelled with a “C”
Posted by JimIf you are in Escondido, you can find Karne Asada. There is a market and food stall on about the 1200 block of East Valley Parkway that is not to be missed. It is called Kennedy Karne. We inquired, while dropping in for some Karne Asada, about the whereabouts of Mr. Kennedy among a sea of people clearly not of Irish descent.
It seems the original owner, whose name was not Kennedy, opened the store in 1961 and was a real fan of JFK. The current owner was more than happy to fill in the long history of the place and was proud of the fact it was named for President Kennedy.
The food and prices were great and the workers more than friendly, so if you are in Escondido(don’t ask why I was there) this place is not to be missed. They have a $4.95 special every day that is a very filling plate of excellent Mexican food.
