Fire
Split oak goes in the firebox before we open. Everything on the menu with a grill mark got it over those coals, not a gas flat-top.
Wood-fire grill & taqueria · 418 Foundry St, Marrowick
Tacos off the coals.
Oak fire, a steel grate, corn tortillas pressed at the counter and six salsas in squeeze bottles. Order at the window, grab a number, and we shout it when your tray is up.

What happens here
Three things.
Done loud.
Tortilla
Masa gets pressed and slapped on the comal when you order. Two tortillas under every taco, so nothing falls through.
Salsa
Six squeeze bottles at the bar, from a mild tomatillo verde to a smoky macha that bites back. Help yourself, as much as you want.
