Continuing In An Unknown World - Restaurant News In The Age Of An Unprecedented Pandemic
March 13, 2020
It seems trivial to write and report about local restaurant news in a time like this, but this is also the time when small local businesses will most need support. The United States and much of the globe are reeling in response to a global pandemic unprecedented in the modern world. Like most of my fellow humans dealing with Coronavirus hysteria, I do not know what to do or how to proceed. Yet we cannot continue as we have without addressing the elephant in the room. Our way of life has changed dramatically in a short period of time, and we surmise it will continue to become more restrictive as testing increases and precaution measures evolve. What do you want from your local food news blog during such a time? Should we just ignore this and provide a respite from the craziness? Should we remain a light-hearted distraction? Should we report about how local eateries are reacting to the epidemic, who is open, who is closing, who is doing what to adapt in the face of this new world? Should we continue to encourage commerce or opt to promote prepared safety for our readership? Personally, I have no idea what to do. Do you?

TBT RePost: Making The World's Best Taco - Perrones From Rosarito's Tacos El Yaqui
March 12, 2020
Located about an hour south of downtown San Diego, Tacos El Yaqui in Rosarito, MX, makes only one kind of taco, but it is our favorite taco in the world. Called a "taco perron", this work of art is made with a fluffy flour tortilla quesadilla, unfolded then filled with marinated wood-fire cooked arrachera (skirt steak) chopped to order in front of you. These Sonoran-style tacos are topped with cooked pinto beans, and if you order it "con todo" as you always should - cilantro, chopped white onion, thin guacamole and salsa are all added. These tacos are then served with a side of roasted jalapeños and radishes. Here is a video showing how to make them at home!
