| Miriam waited in line for 45 minutes to try the famous tacos at this taqueria, which was awarded a star last month in the first Michelin Guide to Mexico. |
From The LA Times May 23, 2024:
“The taco guy didn’t quite get the fuss. ‘I didn’t realize the magnitude of the whole thing,’ recalled Arturo Rivera Martínez. ‘I had no idea of what a Michelin star was.’ He does now.
“El Califa de León, the modest taquería where Rivera has labored over a sizzling grill for more than two decades, was awarded a star last week in the first-ever Michelin Guide Mexico, instantly turning him and the rest of the staff into epicurean heroes.” (link)
Food and Wine magazine also covered the unexpected star for the taqueria:
“‘The secret is the simplicity of our taco. It has only a tortilla, red or green sauce, and that's it. That, and the quality of the meat,’ Rivera Martínez told the AP, adding that ‘Coke’ is the perfect pairing to his Michelin meals.” (link)
