Forget the bright yellow taco shells out of a box because the real-deal Mexican taco comes in a soft-shell corn tortilla with some of the juiciest fillings you’ve ever had. Sora samples steak and tinga (spicy chicken) tacos at Mexi Taco while PJ heads to El Trompo for some chicharron de queso (griddle toasted cheese) and zucchini flower quesadillas. The duo then head to Dos Amigos where tostadas and hominy corn soup known as Pozole end their Mexican culinary adventure.
