The Calles do go at lot further than 60. But a third HC Carnes on Calle 60? Really......? The second one is on CTM which is closer to Calle 40. I'd recommend stopping at that one before searching for the one on Calle 60. At least CTM is a clearly marked street that should not confuse anyone. Calle 60 is little harder for the uninitiated to find.

It is a street name like Benito Juarez or Constituyentes.
But it is CTM
In other words I've not abbreviated what is on the street signs. It is after Calle 38 when you are traveling north and is in the approx area of Calle 40. It is clearly sign posted (mostly).

If you are driving down 30th look for the Chinese Restaurant on the North West Corner.

CTM is where the second HC Carnes location is. (you will find a bunch of other posts claiming other locations, this is the correct one).

Also on CTM is:

The building supply store Carrillo (where we buy our concrete).

And Llantamaya. Otherwise known as Goodyear tires (but no longer recognizable as such as the Goodyear sign is long gone). A good option for wheel alignments and Goodyear tires (and they have at least one English Speaking alignment tech).

I guess that's why I could never find it on Constituyentes. Kept looking...no luck.

The second HC Carnes is on the north side of CTM (which is where you would expect to find Calle 46), between 10th and 15th Aves.

Ate at HC today, my first time. OMG it was absolutely wonderful, I am still full and we ate there 4 hours ago! The mother in law look a little freaked when we first started walking to it! She ending up loving her food, best meal so far.

Wondering if anyone has tried to recreate the HC experience at home?

I have...and I used skirt steak this past time. I have a lot of work to do...any advice, anyone else tried it?

I got the onions and potatoes down !
