Some have closed down and some had really put a memory in my brain (I want to KEEP going back). Even know people say "its the same place different location" it really isn't. I rather eat at San loco in the LES VS Brooklyn. I don't know why, they just do it well/better.... Any who here are my spots in the need of trying. I will come back and rate them, but will also come up on my YELP page (checking in). I don't know IF you noticed, but I'm Yelp Elite now. I get in on all the details. I've meet a lot of friends too.

It's something Mexican cookers do well, PORK. I love it soo much; tasty & flavorful. NB- Otto Tacos Train: 1 Train / Christopher street (o...
