On our map. We haven't walked through the door yet — here's why it's on the list.
A taqueria on Saint-Denis reaching for the atmosphere of Mexico City's no-nonsense taco counters, with minimal, almost cafeteria seating and an open kitchen.
Tacos with suadero, chuleta and al pastor, marinated pork served with coriander and pineapple, are what get cited most. The house turns up regularly in local best-of lists for the Plateau and for Mexican food in the city.
Taqueria La Matraca is on the Regulars map — noted, not yet visited. Our guides are written on foot, door by door, and nobody pays to be in them. Whether the house takes part in Regulars is still to be confirmed. No points, no coupons — standing is earned.
