This pop up is getting plenty of well-deserved attention.
More Navajo Taco intel
Earlier today we told you about the one night only Navajo Taco pop up happening this upcoming Monday at 12 Steps Down (831 Christian St.), a collaborative effort between Lucio Palazzo of La Calaca Feliz, Marcos Espinoza of Side Project Jerky fame and friend of Meal Ticket Hawk Krall.
If you were one the fence about attending Monday's taco festivities we've got some more info that will most likely make you want to make your way to 12 Steps on Monday.
Krall filed a report on the pop up over at Serious Eats complete with a limited edition poster he designed for the occasion. Here's what he as to say about this unique history of the taco:
"Ever had a Navajo Taco? A cousin of the puffy taco, Navajo Tacos start with a funnel-cake-esque base of frybread, topped with "chili beans", lettuce, tomato, and shredded cheese, and can be found at state fairs and reservations across the southwest. Nearly impossible to find outside of Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado, though, we're bringing them to Philadelphia in the form of a pop-up dinner next Monday night."
Over at the Daily News Meal Ticket godfather Drew Lazor checked out the test run of tacos that Palazzo and Espinoza rolled out last weekend and the story of Espinoza's longstanding love of the Navajo taco.
Sounds pretty great, right? See you on Monday!
