"street tacos" news and stories

It is a rare occurrence when we come across a homemade taco that looks like it was purchased on the street.

At first blush, that may seem like a pejorative statement, but when it comes to tacos many foodies will argue that they're tastiest when served from a truck. (Or while in Mexico, obviously.)

But for some of us -- no matter how hard we try -- our kitchen tacos will never resemble truck tacos. Not so for Marc Matsumoto over at No Recipes, who created this Carne Asada concoction.

Perhaps this is because his philosophy for cooking is "50 percent technique, 40 percent inspiration and 10 percent ingredients." Maybe it's those delectable-looking homemade corn tortillas (which, he tells us, are a breeze to make). And though he doesn't admit it in the post, we're willing to bet the meat was inspired by the street.
