What They Ate
Quotes
"We're in Tacos Los Alexis. Here I met Chef Alexis, a sweet man, who throughout this tasting gave me as many shots of mezcal as he did tacos."
"Wow, this is like an evolution of the taco. You bite it and the juice, the meaty sort of grilled qualities of it, the chew from the tortilla, all the fragrances there."
"All the flavor I want is there. It's spicy, it's a little sweet, it's acidic. And then there's some fattiness from the cheese. And also the avocado gives the creamy richness to it all."
"Next up was the beautiful taco de Torino. That was my favorite so far. For meaty persons, this is like a bomb."
"This one has three different kind of meats. It has chicharron, that is the crispy pork skin. It has longaniza, that is similar as the chorizo. And it also has cecina, it's like pressed jerky meat. And then we mix it up with adobo, that is a red chili sauce."
"This Torino, a solid 8."
