It's National Taco Day!

When I was younger, I used to think I hated tacos. It's mostly because I thought they only came in one variety: the hard-shelled, sometimes soggy ground "beef" Taco Bell tacos. Thank goodness I have expanded my horizons and realized that tacos are one of the most accessible vehicles to get creative. From Boom Noodle's ahi tuna tacos here in Seattle to LA's Kogi Truck's Korean short-rib tacos...these tasty little bites are some of my favorite late night snacks!


Here are my suggestions:

•  Aqua Verde Cafe and Paddle Club
• Wahoo's Fish Tacos
• Taco Trail 
• Lonestar Taqueria (see how tasty it is in the video below!)

Here are some for free:

• Taco John’s: Take along your coupon for a BOGO taco good for tomorrow.
• Chevy’s Fresh Mex: You will want to visit them on Facebook so you can download a coupon for a free taco. 
• The old fast-food standard...Del Taco will give you a free taco if you like them on Facebook through October 13th! 

For those of you who want to stay in tonight, try this tasty Chile-Braised Pork Shoulder Tacos from Bon Appetit!
