I'm Mexican, and this is a new way of thinking about tacos for me. It's very true for street tacos, you pay by the taco, so you order exactly how many you want.
There are places where you ask for one, eat it, then ask for another, and so on until you're full. JIT tacos.
- jasonwatkinspdx 6y agoYeah, another thing I loved about the better carnitas places in Mexico City is you can pick your exact cut of meat. I forget the name of the place but my favorite was near where I was staying in Condesa. It's been in some movies and stuff over the years. No seating at all. You just stand around holding your plate and getting JIT tacos lol. Very convenient to just grab a bite on the way somewhere quick.
