The Ultimate Carrot Cake

I know that I could just Google a carrot cake recipe, but I like asking Serious Eaters in case they're kind enough to pass along a beloved family recipe or their grandma's take on a classic.

Here's the story:
My dad's 58th birthday is next week and for the past month or so I've been gathering information concerning his favorite meal and what kind of cakes he likes. I've decided on making my abuelita's enchilada's, Spanish rice and re-fried beans for the meal, which I could make with my eyes closed, but the problem is my lack of baking skills.

My dad wants a carrot cake for his birthday. The other night he said that he's been craving carrot cake for months, homemade carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. I want to do everything from scratch, but I'm not sure how to pull it off and I need an excellent recipe.

So, does anyone have an ultimate, moist and delicious carrot cake recipe?
