The Best Thing I Ate Last Week

The best thing I ate last week was a simple taco plate at Pineda’s on East Lake Street in Minneapolis. I was shooting a pilot for a new series we’re developing for Travel Channel and I had a 10 minute break. Realizing I was a block away, I ran in the rain to Pineda and chowed down on two carnitas tacos and two chicken chipotle tacos. Everything was simply beyond perfect, from the corn masa tortillas crisped in lard on the griddle to the home spun fillings with a simple cilantro and onion garnish. And naturally, I had to wash it all down with a Jarrito’s Tamarindo.
