IN OTHER WORDS
Le Fooding (2015) “Le placide barbu à la major sûre enroule dans ses tortillas («les mêmes qu’au Mexique») bœuf grillé, poulet, tomate et sauce chipotle sur une base de haricot noir, ou champignons, patate douce et préparation au piment vert…”
David Lebovitz (2011) “… home made tortillas… deep-fried as a base for tostadas or for chips to dip in guacamole and salsa. Or else served delicate, to wrap up sautéed spicy meats or melting cheese with strips of inexperienced chiles layered inside for heat taco fillings… Fortunately they’re began doing take-out and so they’ve prolonged their hours.”
L’Categorical (2011) “Côté rue, un confetti de taqueria mexicaine qui délivre ses bons tacos carnitas et autres tostadas queso fresco dans une pièce toute blanche pensée au centimètre près pour caser une delicacies ouverte, une desk, un comptoir bricolé major, et quelques cactus nains. Côté porte dérobée, au bout du couloir, un bar quasi clandestin dessiné par quelques designers en vogue.”
Croque Camille (2011) “… these are one of the best tacos this aspect of Juarez. The menu modifications periodically, however the carnitas are a standout… Additionally they serve a wonderful tostada – none of that overly salad-filled taco shell enterprise right here. As a substitute, it’s a freshly fried corn tortilla topped with one thing great.”
