Are Mexico City’s most viral tacos actually worth the hype? Bill Esparza and producer Robert Haleblian unpack what the Michelin Guide, TikTok influencers and tourists get wrong about Mexican taco culture, from El Califa de León’s Michelin star to the crowds at La Once Mil.
Bill explains why premium beef and heirloom corn don’t automatically make a better taco, what gets lost when street food becomes a luxury experience, and why generations of taquero expertise deserve more attention. Planning a Mexico City food trip? He also shares favorite stops for tacos al pastor, chorizo verde and tacos de canasta, including El Huequito, El Vilsito and Ricos Tacos Toluca.
Plus: a dispatch from LA’s Chef’s Conference, a lively discussion about the future of food media, and a reminder that Los Angeles dining still has plenty of life.
Taqueando with Bill Esparza is part of Acquired Taste, alongside The LA Food Podcast and Compliments to the Chef.
