Dishes to know on this menu

Birria: A richly seasoned meat stew associated with Jalisco, traditionally made with goat but now frequently prepared with beef as well. The meat is braised with dried chiles and spices and may be served in a bowl with broth or used as a taco filling. Modern birria tacos are often griddled after the tortillas are dipped in the cooking fat. Add cheese and you'll commonly see the name quesabirria. A cup of consomé for dipping often comes alongside. On this menu as: Quesabirria · Birria de Chivo.
Tostadas: Corn tortillas cooked or fried until crisp and used as a flat base for toppings. Beans, shredded meat, tinga, ceviche, seafood, lettuce, crema, cheese and salsa are all common possibilities. Unlike a folded taco, a tostada stays open-faced. Eat it with your hands and accept the crumbs. On this menu as: Tostada de Atún · Steak Tartare Tostada.
Al pastor: Marinated pork cooked on a vertical spit called a trompo, then sliced for tacos. The style developed in central Mexico from spit-roasting techniques brought by Lebanese immigrants and is related to shawarma. Many versions use dried chiles and achiote, and pineapple is a common accompaniment. In Tijuana and parts of northwestern Mexico, a closely related style is commonly called adobada. Preparation varies, and not every restaurant advertising pastor uses a trompo. On this menu as: Tacos de Al Pastor.
Cabeza, tripa, buche & suadero: Several of the less familiar fillings you may see at a taquería. Cabeza refers to meat from the beef head; cachete, or cheek, may be identified separately. Tripa is intestine, commonly cooked until tender and then griddled or fried, sometimes quite crisp. Buche is pork stomach and is frequently prepared alongside carnitas. Suadero is a tender beef cut particularly associated with Mexico City tacos, where it is slowly cooked and finished on the griddle. The exact cuts and preparations vary considerably from one taquería to another. On this menu as: Tacos de Suadero.
Baja fish tacos: The classic Ensenada-style fish taco pairs battered and fried fish with a corn tortilla, shredded cabbage, creamy sauce, salsa and lime. The style is strongly associated with Baja California and has had an enormous influence on Southern California taco culture. Menus may also offer grilled fish or similarly prepared shrimp tacos. On this menu as: Tacos de Estilo Baja.
Masa: The dough at the heart of tortillas, tamales, sopes, gorditas, tlacoyos and countless other foods. Traditional corn masa is produced through nixtamalization, in which dried corn is cooked and soaked in an alkaline solution before being washed and ground. Restaurants may make masa from dried corn themselves or use prepared masa or masa harina. Restaurants advertising heirloom or native corn may identify the particular varieties or producers they use. On this menu as: Masa Pancakes.
