The @casaenrique enchiladas are always a win. The tortillas are fresh with the scent of nixtamal 😍. Still convinced that the #7TrainFoodways are NYC's finest. 🗽🇲🇽
Tamales with the #StJohnsUniversity @intlhousesju jovenes learning about Mexican foodways in Queens. 40 Tamales from #DeliciasPuebla in #JacksonHeights de mole & de rajas, & some of the students trying their first tamal ever. We also watched the @southernfoodways film #Mexington to learn about how food brings folks together & breaks down walls. 🇲🇽🗽
It's true. PM if interested in participating. ✨🌮✨
Viva México cabrones! #16deseptiembre #mexicanindependenceday 🇲🇽🗽
Behold the #BandejaPaisa from @raicescolombianas_restaurant in #JacksonHeights. Carne asada, half a chorizo, chicharrón, frijoles, arroz topped with a fried egg, maduros, arepita, & a slice of avocado. Now: tengo sueño. 😴
A favorite from the @queensnightmarket at the #JacksonHeights #VivaLaComida street fair @themalaysianproject with still one of the best 🍔s around. They wrap the patty in egg, #AHuevo #Queens
¡Menudo Monday!
Finally made it to @lahinewyork today. The Inihaw na Liempo, grilled marinated pork belly in garlic vinegar because 🐷. And because they had tacos on the menu, you know I had to: sisig tacos, fried flour shells filled w/ pork sisig and topped w/ lemon mayo. Filipino carnitas tacos!
Nothing but ♥ for my favorite coffee shop in #JacksonHeights #LaGranUruguaya with the fantastic empanadas de carne. The salsa here is one of the most unique I have had, but you have to ask for it tho, so don't forget. But the empanada without it is still 🔥.
If you are near #Poughkeepsie stop by @cocinaoaxaquena for some of the best mole in NY.
No limes. 🤔
✨Critical Conchasness✨ 😎
The #AlPastor taco placero, from the Tlaxcalan gente at #TiaJulia. Check out the new map when you go there.
Adios #TaqueriaSinaloense we had some good times. In yr place, #TiaJulia
😮 Behold the foie gras burger at @restaurantaupieddecochon 😍. No words. 🇨🇦
A little late to share this taco love from @pochodotcom about the taco pilgrimage to California. Gracias to Pochxs for letting me share a bit about the journey. It was the start of a #tacoliteracy summer that spanned from California, to Chicago, to Shijiazhuang, China, to Montreal, and now back to NYC. The world loves Mexican foodways. 🌍♥🌮
✨Yes that is a mergez on a stick. ✨
The tacos al pastor at @leroidutaco in #montreal. The Canadian tortilla game is strong, mi gente. El Rey is also a grocery store selling tortillas de harina called #Sonora made in 🇨🇦. North America knows the Sonorenses make the best. You don't agree? ¡Come at me! 😂
Oh Canada! Saw this trompo at the taqueria near the market & knew the gente in #Quebec were not messing around. 🇲🇽🇨🇦 #AlPastorEsMiSeñor
Not tacos: rolled down to Candide (yes, named for the libro) for a fine farm-to-table dinner before leaving #Montreal. The salad was beans, kohlrabi, & a yogurt vinaigrette. The soup tomatoes, eggplant, & clams. The main course, guinea hen, corn, & lobster mushrooms.
