Taco Dorado de Camaron

📍 Los Angeles Mexican Seafood $

at Mariscos Jalisco

"The taco dorado de camaron is fried to a shattering crisp, then split open and loaded with avocado and red salsa. The shrimp inside stay tender because of the speed of frying. This is street food at its apex — Raul Ortega has been doing this for decades and it shows."

"Every element earns its place: the fried shell shatters, the salsa roja has real depth, the avocado cools the whole thing down. This is the definitive Los Angeles taco."
