RE: Twin Cities Taco Tour - Tacqueria Los Ocampo

in #food9 years ago (edited)

I love authentic mexican food, and that looks about as good as it gets. When you start getting radishes/cilantro/onion instead of the very americanized cheese/lettuce/tomato, you know you're in the right place.

I only discovered this like 3 years ago after moving out of the midwest to southern california. Authentic mexican food is cheap and so amazingly good. It shattered my reality of what mexican food actually is... I was living in a bubble apparently.

If your #tctacotour ever makes it out this way let me know - I've found a few hole-in-the-wall places that are just amazing.

Edit - Oh, and have you ever tried cochinita pibil? I didn't until this year, one of my new favorites.

Sort:  

I've only tried cochinita pibil at one restaurant, a nicer sit-down place. I'll be visiting there for one of these posts, their tortillas are the best.

I was shocked at how good the pickled onions are.

There weren't any pickled onions sadly, but I went to the restaurant I mentioned above and had their cochinita pibil. Turns out that means baby pig, and it totally wasn't worth eating a baby pig. https://steemit.com/food/@pfunk/twin-cities-taco-tour-fancy-edition-la-fresca
