On our map. We haven't walked through the door yet — here's why it's on the list.
Taqueria opened in 2015 on Notre-Dame Ouest by Enrique Chan Morales, his mother and his brother, originally from Oaxaca — the project started small, with $2 tacos grilled on George Foreman machines. The name honours Frida Kahlo, whose paintings decorated Enrique's childhood home.
The menu draws on Oaxacan recipes rather than generic Tex-Mex: tacos al pastor and cecina, grilled dry-aged beef served with Oaxacan cheese, guacamole and radish. The spot is marking its tenth anniversary this year.
Tacos Frida is on the Regulars map — spotted, not yet visited. Our guides are written on foot, door by door, and no one pays to appear: when we walk through the door, this note will become a portrait. No points. No coupons. Standing is earned.
