First, check out my episode of Around the Hood in 8 Minutes HERE:
We hit six or seven spots on this awesome food crawl through Queens. Let me hit them one by one.
Taqueria Santa Fe
This first spot ended up being my favorite. The al pastor taco stood out. Crispy, yet juicy. Well seasoned, great toppings. The only thing to make it better would be a more toasted tortilla, like Mr. Burrito had.
Mr. Burrito Loco
The carnitas taco here took third place, but the tortilla shells were the best of the day. Great spot! I want to try the crispy fish tacos next, and, of course, a burrito!
El Sabor Del Rancho
The carnitas taco here took second place. All it needed was a little hit of salt and it would have been a contender for first place!
Al Chile Cafe
The al pastor here was a bit more saucy than other spots, so that made for a juicier and more flavorful bite, generally. The only down side was that there were a few bites with rubbery/chewy sinew that I had to spit out. Bonus here because they give you roasted onions and jalapenos on the side!
La Esquina Del Camaron Mexicano
This place was fun! Big portion for $17, mixed octopus and shrimp. Bring vodka with you to make a Bloody Mary with the leftover sauce/juice at the end. Or tequila for a Bloody Maria!
Lemon Ice King of Corona
An absolute classic. I got the lemon, and I loved it.
