About this episode

It’s another Taqueando Q&A, and Bill Esparza is answering everything. Bill and Rob get into the backlash over their LA mariscos guide, what separates great ceviche and aguachile from the rest, how to tell whether an oyster is worth eating, whether King Taco invented the taco truck, the best pozole and chile en nogada in Los Angeles, where to eat in Coyoacán, and Bill’s perfect day of eating in LA.Plus, the Antojitos Rundown hits Loreto’s Wednesday omakase, Broken Spanish Comedor, Holbox, Disciples of the Corn and Mariscos El Tambo. Taqueando is part of Acquired Taste, bringing you deep dives into tacos, Mexican food, Los Angeles restaurants and the people behind them.Produced by Robert Haleblian.
