  • The Baja-style fish taco is quite possibly the taco king of the West Coast. In this episode, we'll trace its origin back to the Mercado Negro in Ensenada, while also visiting some of the best fish taco stands of the region.
    Later on, Fara crosses the border to know Rick Rubio, the man responsible for popularizing that taco in the US, finishing with a visit to the Chulavista based torta and taco truck Corazón de Torta.

    A really great stop-gap for motion sickness is to stomp your feet. There are proprioceptive organs in your legs called Golgi-Tendons. They help your body know where everything is at at any point in time. When your cochlea is having trouble compensating with the motion this will help (a little) with keeping your breakfast down.

      @jlopez1017d I’ve tried taco nazo we have one here but itaxo imo is probably a bit better lol try it fried. And if you like chicharones try their burrito it’s probably my favorite
