Taco Bout It

Chef Ocho, born Keith Samuel Garrett, transformed his life and his Watts, Los Angeles neighborhood by launching the popular taco business "All Flavor, No Grease." Initially a way to cope with childhood bullying and financial instability, his venture grew from selling snacks to a thriving food truck operation that provides home-cooked meals in a local food desert. The business became a catalyst for community healing, even brokering a ceasefire between rival gangs on 108th Street. Despite the tragic loss of his business partner and childhood friend, Travion Mason, Ocho leveraged his platform to foster positivity and reclaim his identity. By prioritizing community service and authentic connection, he successfully rebranded from a bullied youth to a respected local entrepreneur, turning a residential street into a peaceful hub of culinary and social cohesion.
