When exiting into the city of La Puente from the 10 Freeway, there's a 15-minute stretch on Amar Street with plenty to see. Look for the man selling Mexican pottery out of his truck, the lineup of quality taco trucks, and the 59-year-old drive-thru marvel that is the Donut Hole. They're all worth a visit to this suburb located 19 miles east of Downtown LA alone. But drive slightly past the Donut Hole for another notable stop. Father-son team Jakob and Eric 'Red' Alvarado operate Red's King Oyster Bar out of their La Puente home, along with Jakob's childhood friend Kevin Lizarraga.
