Pinche Tacqueria
I was having a serious taco craving the other day. My first instinct was to run over to El Presidente for a quick Madison Gringa but I've been there so much lately well...I was honestly a little embarrassed to be going back again. I'm already on a first name basis with half of the staff and they've only been open a month or so. Instead I started walking downtown and ran right into Pinche Tacqeria right around Nolita. Pinche is a tiny little joint located right on Lafayette. You place your order at the bar inside, take a table number and voila- your food appears as soon as it's ready. I went for two of my favorites Carne Asada and Pescado with Cotija cheese added to both. The steak taco was fantastic...juicy char-grilled meat with the flavor of mesquite and a dollop of guacamole on top. Unfortunately the fish was overwhelmed by it's accouterments. There was so much onion and cilantro on top any other flavor was completely cancelled. ...
