Media Exposure: Denver Eater, Bon Appetit
What: Rated one of the best new restaurants of 2012. Formerly Pinche Tacos. Denver style tacos. A nice change of pace for eclectic tastes.
Pork Belly Agridulce. Sweet & sour braised pork belly, candied garlic, cabbage & cilantro slaw, braising jus. I was expected a lower profile chunk of pork belly. Mild flavored and meaty pork belly. The braising jus gave it much needed zing. Bigger portions please.
Cordero. Braised lamb shank, esquite, queso fresco, cilantro. Light on the lamb. This was a more flavorful taco and more savory. Small tortillas made for much spillage with each bite. I enjoyed the Cordero more than the Agridulce.
Both were good but not at the level of hype of being one of the best taco joints in USA. Maybe my wallet is more demanding.
Bottom Line: 60% Real Deal.
