1-MINUTE TACO REVIEW 🌮 Garlic shrimp taco at @maketacorosarito.
1-MINUTE TACO REVIEW 🌮 Garlic shrimp taco at @maketacorosarito. This spot is so low key, we totally walked right past it when we were trying to find it! Their garlic shrimp taco features perfectly grilled shrimp in a very strong garlic sauce. We will return eventually for their bacon wrapped shrimp taco (why we went, but they were out of bacon that day ;-).

Tacos Fitos in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, serve delicious tacos of birria and tripa at their stand outside of the city's main market, Mercado Hidalgo. The taqueros here are widely considered to be the FASTEST in Mexico. A Gringo in Mexico slows it down so you can catch all the action. Provecho!

Oh, man I'm not a fan of anchovies but I've gotta have this!
No anchovy. 😒😒😒
Good choice
Don't ever go to Tijuana. It makes St.Louis look like paradise.
this mother fucker said "coddled egg" when the guy cracked open the fresh egg lmao
Beautifully made.
y las poooootas anchoas? esto no es ceaser ni a mil km de distancia
37 seconds of just pouring oil. Idk bout yall but thats seem excessive to me
What's the name of this restaurant
This is the OG Restaurante Ceasar's in Tijuana-where the salad was first mixed way back in 1927. They still make it table side today :-)
Next level birria
Loved the video. You a great resume ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉😂😂😂 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
How much USD
The great thing is, you can make this salad in exactly the same amount of time as he did. He did it with more flourish of course, but all the same stuff. I use lemon myself, but same diff. Play with it once a week and find your perfect recipe. Add a bit more of this or that. It's fun! And tasty!
The best list I’ve seen. I frequent TJ a lot since living in San Diego my whole life and I can honestly say I’ve only been to one of these spots.
Thanks for your comment! I now have a list of 60 taquerias in Tijuana, all killer, no filler. Follow my FB and IG @agringoinmexico for an upcoming announcement!
Classic tourist trap 😂
For sure, but the food at Caesar's is actually pretty good, overall ;-)
About 45 years ago I had my first real Caesar salad at the Club de Golf in Mexico City. The server that made it table-side had one arm, and his skill and showmanship were amazing.
Ive been there in 2021 ,the salads were amazing. I actually ate there 3 days in a row.. best Ceasar salad of my life
why use limes rather then lemons? ansi,,,u made thus exactly like this same technique...the very best salad totally dominating!! a good 3 anchovy filets and oil
Mostaza, huevo crudo, ketchup, mayonesa, azucar, jugo de lima...? Destruyeron esa iconoca ensalada mexicana 😢
Where's the garlic and anchovies?
At the beginning of the preparation…which I failed to film! LOL! I have another video here that shows the full prep.
Thank you Italy
Aviator salad 😑
I love La Paz we own a condo there!!! I have tried the chocolata clams and always wondered why they were called that . I I haven’t gone to this restaurant. Do you have a few favorite out there that you recommend?
No Mayo, no Chicken and on and on and on. Please stop bastardizing this perfect salad !!!!EVERYONE. THIS RECIPE I S T H E O N L Y R E A L C A E S A R . I N V E N T E D I N T I J U A N A !!!
FINALLY, THE REAL DEAL!!!
Cool. I was one of those that believed Mexicans only ate corn tortillas, and that flour tortillas are Americanized Mexican. I decided to challenge my belief by doing further research, and stumbled upon this video and numerous articles debunking this myth. I personally enjoy both.
Thanks so much for your comment! if I only change the mind of one tortilla lover, my mission here is accomplished :-)
Yum!
No No only freswh ingrediants bottled flavors are not fresh tasting....no bueno
The originator Alex Cardini did not put anchovies
Correct about the anchovies. However, it's a point of contention as to whether the salad was created by Caesar or his brother Alex (depends on which historian you ask). For posterity's (and branding's) sake, most attribute it's creation to Caesar.
My wife and I sat at this very restaurant and learned this beloved salad is Mexican. We actual sat at the table to the left of the waiter. My favorite thing is to ask people where the Cesar salad originated. Everyone says Italy
Not Italy. Ensenada, México by a group of Mexican aviators cooking aficionados. Cardini plagiarized the recipe and americanized the original.
@@bombonalvarez3802 read the responses fully. NO one said the caesar salad is from Italy.
Yeah if that’s really $90 for a salad, that’s bs. I’ll go get kens for $3 🤣🤣
Uh, it’s 90 pesos dude…this is in Mexico. That’s just under $6/US and it feeds four people 🤣🤣🤣
@@AGringoinMexicoI’m American and don’t even bother trying to explain it. Trust me. They won’t understand
No anchovies please. I know they are not traditional, but I would use two anchovies and capers.
So do what YOU want. Who cares!
They are not originally use, but are indeed TRADITIONAL
Is there beans ?
No.
@@AGringoinMexico any cheese?
Kudos to Caesar McLaughlin for inventing this wonderful dish
It wasn’t McLaughlin this was invented by Sid Caesar in 1967
Judging by the ingredients it looks more healthy than the supermarket ones
I made this today and it was way too much anchovies. Next time I will use a tiny bit
wow this is exactly what I was looking for Polyethylene pam could be from the plastic band or john lennons plastic ono band
Having a big bowl with plenty of room for tossing is such a key technique for any salad. Our modern habit of pouring dressing on after serving is so inadequate.
I'd give him a $10 tip.
You didn’t put enough salsa!!
You're right! Hahahahah! What was I thinking? ;-)
Looks delicious!
It is!
That's sour cream bro. Not mayo crema to be exact
YUM!
Yummy 😋
By the way, I see the bottle of Tabasco. I forgot to ask what the waiter uses it for. Thank you.
It doesn't go in the salad. Not sure why he has Tabasco.
@@AGringoinMexicoI’ve seen recipes that do use a small amount of Tabasco . Maybe this customer didn’t want it?
@@peteyprimo7173 I've had that salad dozens of times and they've never added Tabasco. It's not in the original or the modified version (where anchovy is added). Though maybe it is an option? I'll have to ask next time I'm there. Could be good since it's got a vinegar base, which would blend well with the olive oil and add a bit of heat.
@@AGringoinMexico it is just on the cart which is used for many things. The Caesar bowl comes and goes from the cart.
I think anyone should be paid extra to be watched and recorded while working. It’s a lot of pressure added.
Agree. I always leave these guys Ana extra tip when I take amigos who film them.
So how is it eaten? With hands or knife and fork? Tongs? Seriously curious.
As with the original, the leaves of Romaine are left intact so they can be picked up with the hands and eaten individually :-)
@@AGringoinMexico -- Well, I'll be doggone. Many thanks.
$136.00? For real?
Uh, that’s 136 pesos. About seven bucks U.S. 🤣🤣🤣
I've never seen a recipe with anchovies and worchestshire sauce. Typically either one or the other. I adore anchovies, so I must try this recipe!
The original 1927 recipe didn’t include anchovies, they were added later. It did include Worcestershire. I guess someone thought that it needed to be saltier and have even more umami ;-)
Looks good!
It's really a great gourmet taco. LOL! We'll be having one of these on February 18th during our Three Amigos Tijuana Taco Tour. Join us! www.ThreeAmigosTacoTours.com.
