How Taco Bamba Chef Victor Albisu Makes a Ramen Taco Work in Fairfax - Eater DC
"Taco Bamba's new Fairfax location showcases chef Victor Albisu's innovative approach to Mexican street food. The highlight is the 'Robinson Ramen' taco, a creative fusion of Japanese ramen and Mexican flavors. This taco includes carnitas with shoyu, fresh noodles boiled and finished on a flat top for crunchiness, and a ramen broth tweaked with citrus and chiles. Complementary elements include canned corn, scallions, salsa machado, and a togarashi spice tartar sauce. Albisu's inventive combinations, like the ramen taco, define Taco Bamba as a place that doesn't take itself too seriously while maintaining a commitment to authentic Mexican flavors." - Gabe Hiatt
