    The gringo taco

    National Taco Day is this Tuesday. Ordinarily we don't pay much attention to such food holidays since our email inboxes are full of them, with everything from donuts to dumplings.

    National Taco Day is this Tuesday. Ordinarily we don't pay much attention to such food holidays since our email inboxes are full of them, with everything from donuts to dumplings. However, National Taco Day gave us just the opportunity we were looking for to chat with LA Weekly food writer Garrett Snyder about his favorite gringo taco spots in town. Check out his favorite hard-shell taco spots on the Good Food blog.
