After driving down to Long Beach Island for a weekend of sun, sand, and fun my girlfriend and I were hungry for a quick bite to eat. A quick search on my phone pulled up El Swell Taqueria, the spot was nearby, had good ratings, and sounded perfect for […]
An afternoon of wandering around the Santa Monica Pier and walking along the beach, my friend and I really craving tacos and margaritas. Fortunately, Blue Plate Taco was steps from the pier and had just what we were craving. The vibe was super beachy and we were all […]
Few things make me happier than finding a good taqueria. During a recent day trip to Philly I had a chance to check out the Philadelphia Museum of Art (which is beautiful by the way) but after touring the whole museum my girlfriend and I were hungry and […]
Some of my favorite taco spots are seriously nothing special from the outside. Tijuana Tacos 3 in Patterson Park is no different. I first heard about this spot from the Baltimore Magazine Taco issue – as I’m forever in search of tacos you bet this was on my radar […]

Let’s talk tacos – there’s a place to grab one on every corner. Some are significantly superior to others (cough, looking at you Clavel) but we don’t always have time for the 45 minute wait (even though it’s always worth it). Pop Tacos just relocated in Federal Hill […]
Jokers & Thieves in Canton recently rebranded as Southern Provisions and switched up their menu – they kept it low-country, but made a few changes. With the addition of garage doors to the bar, on a warm evening, it’s the perfect place to sit outside. With the weather […]
