Show off your tacos!

We all miss food from home sometimes. My bro is in MA now and craves nothing but Mexican food when he comes home.

 

I miss the food and weather! Not the cost of living, traffic or gas prices! Rather be stuck in this humid heat! A pastrami from Giamelas would be awesome right now too!!

 

they've prob been serving 50/50 veggie burgers for 40yrs...now they just took out the beef...

 

Ever have the Pastrami from Santoro's? Beats Giamela's IMO.


Damn... derailing my own thread... and making myself hungry...

 

Negative! But on my way to Cali in March I’ll make note to stop by! Road trip! Way outta the way but good food is almost equal to good views!

 

Seriously? I never knew that. Searching for it net their new marketing where they randomly give you a beef patty or impossible.. that’s kinda cool.

 

not sure for real, but never tasted exactly like a beef burger to me..

 

Dangit! I was just in Burbank today. I wish I saw this sooner. Adding to my list though.

 

@GHOST SHIP Since you in the area you have to try this place.

On Sherman Way right next to the 170 there is a Chevron Station. Inside the gas station is a fast-casual Mexican place called Cilantro Mexican Grill.

I would have never found it if someone didn't take me there but the food is fantastic. The Carne Asada Burrito and Surf and turf are my favorites.

they say the cow tongue is even better but I haven't tried it yet. Parking can suck and it does get busy around lunch time.

 

Cilantro Mexican Grill also has TACOS!

 

Just had Korean taco so good it didn’t stand a chance for a picture! Clark’s on Main Clayton GA!!!!!

 

Wana Iguana - fish tacos in Santa Clarita. The white sauce goes in the tacos and is amazing.

 

Well, taco fixins anyway. Had our seafood & wine fest crew over to can tuna this weekend. A yearly thing we do with local albacore. About 100# each year. L-R is a 50/50 mix of local grass fed/finished beef & local pork chorizo sausage, pork tenderloin and then some of that albacore tuna. No pics of assembly but they were all tasty!

 

first up, some street tacos from a little vendor south of the border...





Next up is my take on street tacos.



slightly different style...

 

they all look great!

 

Grew up on this place! Especially their breakfast burritos before class a few days a week at BHS

 

Found this place and fk it’s so good! Usually at smogasburg sundays and now they have pop up places too. I’ve tried everything they got and it’s all crazy good

 

That looks good. A lot of people don’t know that the recipe for al pastor tacos (literally translates to: “the shepherd’s” tacos) originally came from middle eastern farmers and shepherds that migrated to North America, specifically parts of Mexico. They brought their local food with them and combined it with the food of their new home. Cooking meat on a vertical rotating spit Was not common in Mexico prior to this. A lot of the same spice pallet in both cultures so it makes sense that we’d like each other’s food.

 

Made shrimp tacos tonight.

 

look good!
