Taqueria el greco
Taquería El Greco brings a touch of Middle Eastern influence to Mexico City’s bustling taco scene with its specialty, tacos árabes. Located in the trendy Hipódromo area, this spot offers a delightful fusion of flavours, blending traditional Mexican ingredients with the distinctive spices and preparation techniques of Middle Eastern cuisine.
The signature dish here is the taco árabe, a marinated pork dish that’s similar to the more common tacos al pastor but with a twist. The meat is spiced differently and served on a thicker flour tortilla, almost like a pita, which adds to its unique taste and texture. For those looking for variety, the shawarma is another popular option, offering succulent beef with a mix of herbs and spices.
Taquería El Greco has a laid-back atmosphere, perfect for a casual meal. With its cosy interior and friendly service, it’s a great place to grab lunch or dinner with friends while enjoying a fresh take on the classic taco. The fusion of Middle Eastern and Mexican flavours makes it a stand-out spot in Mexico City’s rich food scene.
