A Tiny Taqueria Calls Dibs on Horace and Dickie’s Former Northeast Digs - Eater DC
"The pint-sized box that housed D.C. fried fish institution Horace and Dickie’s for three decades will revive service next spring as a late-night Mexican street food stand called Taqueria Al Lado II. Chef Rolando Frias tells Eater the goal is to open just off H Street NE (809 12th Street NE) in the beginning of March, just a year after he opened the original Taqueria Al Lado in Adams Morgan. His focused, one-page menu lets patrons choose a taco, quesadilla, huarache, or salad ($4, $8, $8, and $12, respectively), and a protein from a list that includes al pastor, lengua, chicken tinga, vegan barbacoa, tempura-battered cod, and more. Taqueria Al Lado II will be smaller than the first, with just eight seats inside plus a 12-seat patio out front. Carryout and delivery will also be a big part of the business." - Tierney Plumb
