Yes There Are Good Tacos in NYC

I’ve heard people complain that there are no good tacos in New York City–particularly West Coasters who are the worst snobs when it comes to Mexican food. But I’d counter that NYC has really stepped up its taco game in the last few years: witness these carne asada beauties from Los Tacos No. 1 in Chelsea Market. This place is legit. Get the abodada (marinated pork), pile on the free sides and wash it down with an agua fesca. But don’t tangle with the veggie taco – grilled cactus just can not compete with these.
