La Ccayae (라까예)

‘La Ccayae’, an offspring of the famous ‘El Molino’ in Seongsu-dong, brings authentic Mexican street food vibes straight to Seoul Central Market in Sindang-dong. Their ‘Al Pastor Taco’, a feast of thinly sliced meat stacked skewer-style, and the ‘Sogobchang de Ttripa Taco’ are a riot of flavors. Tune up the taste with some added cheese to their tacos, after which you’ll be left nodding in agreement that simple is indeed, savory and superior.

Crispy Pork Town (크리스피포크타운)

What originally started as a hidden Bupyeong gem, ‘Crispy Pork Town’ now holds court in Itaewon. Run by a chef who spent his formative years munching tortillas in Central and South America while also cooking at a Michelin 3-star restaurant, it’s no wonder that this place became a taco joint owing to the popularity of their tacos. Their ‘Carnitas Taco’ and their ‘Beef Suadero Taco’ – a notch above your regular beef stock cubes, are their signatures. And do try the ‘Cheese Taco’, a global favorite to savor the true essence of Latin America.
