The best tacos I've ever had — the meat quality, marinades, and tortillas are perfect, way better than Tacos Number One.
Dishes mentioned
Taco al Pastor
The meat is marinated perfectly, well spiced, and has a nice crust from the spit. It's fatty but not too much, and the tortilla is very good. I expected more pineapple, but the meat is wonderful. Not spicy, as I requested.
Taco Suadero
This one is a bit spicy, but delicious. The meat is seasoned differently from the Al Pastor, more aromatic and delicate. I added avocado salsa and cilantro. It's amazing.
Taco Campechano
This one has a completely new flavor, with cinnamon and maybe red beans inside. It's a very concentrated mixed mince, very powerful. I think a bit of guacamole would have balanced it.
Taco Tripa
The tripe is huge and creates a bath of fat in your mouth. It's absurd. I love it. Not spicy.
Taco Longaniza
This one is spicy, but the flavor is amazing. It has a different texture, with cactus softness and acidity from lime, plus crispy chicharrón. It's the least exciting because there's no meat, but still good.
