I recommend coming at night for the suadero tacos. Although they have steak and pastor tacos, the suadero is my favorite, paired with a glass of tepache, the pineapple fermented drink! If you don´t know what it´s suadero, I´m going to tell you that the Sort Flank Steak you have to cook it first in water and salt, and after that goes directly into a big pot with lard to be confit.

Don Juventino's cecina tacos (curated meat and sun-dry), where he greets you with a board covered in natural and enchilada-style cecina, green and red chorizo, as well as moronga. The highlight of this taco shop is the Campechano taco, featuring dried beef and green chorizo. The tacos come with two tortillas. Take your time to enjoy it while seated and explore the salsas, which range from green with guacamole and red salsa to pickled onions with manzano chili and pico de gallo. You can also order to go if you're in a hurry.

Inside Jamaica´s market, very well known because of the huge sale of flowers, they have this carnitas taco chop. Carnitas are made with pork confited with lard for a period of 4 hours until it gets tender and sweet. You can pick the part of the pig, it´s from nose to tail!
