It may be #BurgerHouse in #Miami #Arizona but it is the burritos that bring me back each time I pass through. A bean and chile colorado burrito and a bean and chile verde burrito, en route to my hometown.
Best mole in #NYC at @lamoradanyc with fresh tortillas & the magical mole Oaxaqueño. Always a special visit to one of NY's treasures. #tacoliteracy #mexny #mexicanfoodways
Treated a couple of graduate students to these ricos tacos at @habanerocp after the #RSAInstitute workshop on #FoodwaysRhetorics. Poblanos in #Maryland serving up antojitos like memelas (seen here) as well as the usual suspects, tacos de bistek, barbacoa (de chivo!) and the surprise 🐙 taco. #TacoLiteracy
Sizzler studies for the #foodwaysrhetorics workshop at the #rsainstitute ✨
Al pastor es mi señor 😈. Pero, after heading to a Jewish diner in Bayside the other day & noting how smokey, crispy pastrami replaced bacon on burgers, I wondered abt pastrami on a trompo. Don't doubt my faith, these are natural thoughts. 😇 #AllTacosAreGodsNiños
😍 When the weekend trompo makes it to the sidewalk in #Corona #TacoLiteracy
#PueblaYork ftw #tacoliteracy at a local bodega that sells tacos on the weekend. 🌮
¡Eso! 🇬🇹
Maybe I cd be vegetarian? Most delicious and beautiful food, & a joy of #Queens the #dosa #queenafoodways
Top Filipino food in #Queens & barbecued pork ribs that will leave you like 🤤. Be sure to sing a song on the always on karaoke 🎤 #queensfoodways
The Original Chubby's in Denver, a #burrito Mexamination. #🌯 Mexhibit A: the deluxe Mexican burger burrito, smothered with that spicy, cheesy gravy chile that is 🔥. Below, there is a burrito, 🌯😊 Mexhibit B: the plain Mexican burger burrito, with that tortilla that is 🔥.
The #nyc #Mexican slice in #Queens chorizo, tomato, jalapeño, onion, mozzarella. Another version is topped with adobo pork. Love the options at this place. 🍕 🌮 🇲🇽 🗽#TacoLiteracy #queensfoodways
Quick pilgrimage stop at the original Chubby's in #Denver for burritos. One, steak with chile and cheese was a super guisado, much missed (guisado with the chile option). The treat was the Mexican, beans, cheese, and hamburger. Hearing people order "give me a Mexican" was 😂.
A taco dialectic from #AquiEnBellaPuebla in #Queens : On the left, a #TacoArabe on flour tortilla. On the right, a #barbacoa taco on corn tortilla. The winner? 🤠 #tacoliteracy #queensfoodways
The #NYC #TacoPlacero the Empire State taco, here topped with a chile relleno, from #HorchataDeli in #Queens #PueblaYork #tacoliteracy
The pernil taco, #nyc #tacoliteracy on the streets of #PueblaYork for bodega taquerías. 🇲🇽🗽🌮
A carne asada taco at #TaqueriaCoatzingo in #JacksonHeights ✨🌮✨ #tacoliteracy
When the @tacosoftexas roll into #Queens I had to show them some of the ♥ of #PueblaYork and in that case, a Texas-sized taco placero from the #HorchataDeli
This milanesa de res torta left me having a religious experience. 😇 😈 Pounded super thin, like tortas in DF or Puebla. Again, #PueblaYork for the win. #tortaliteracy #tacoliteracy #mexny #queensfoodways
And right before the WNYC interview, @gothamist interviewed me about #PueblaYork comidas. I also give the name of my favorite NYC Mexican restaurant. Check it out! #tacoliteracy #mexny
