Oh boy, rapid-fire taco dining here we come! On this episode, host Jorge Meraz checks out Las Ahumaderas, a famous row of foods stands located in the heart of Tijuana. These taco joints have a history of feeding the city since the 1960s. We try the classic adobada taco, carne asada with chorizo taco and more. Then we head over to Palominos for a fine dining experience, a restaurant famous for its steak dishes and scrumptious desserts from the Sonoran region of Mexico.
