Soho Taco | Gourmet Taco Catering

Have you ever been in front of one of Soho Taco’s gourmet taco catering carts wondering what the brown stuff was? What’s in the red stuff?  What did you just put in your mouth, why is it on fire and how can you get more!?  Well, wonder no further!

The muuuy popular culinary website Serious Eats (pictured left) just published a little taco guide entitled (what else?) The Serious Eats Guide to Taco Styles: 

“Tacos come in all shapes, sizes, colors, makes, and models, and you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who doesn’t like at least some form of meat-shoved-in-thin-flatbread. Here’s a quick guide to the most common types of tacos around.”

Their little summary is sure to help taco newbies navigate our mundo de tacos in the most effective yet tasty way.  In it they cover many of the basics: from soft shell tacos, to hard shell; carne asada, to insects (yes, insects); from salsa verde, to salsa in a bottle, etc.

So, be sure to check out their write up, brush up on your basics and tell us what you think!  Did they get it right?  Or, are they 2 cilantro leaves short of a taco combo?
