A Popular Houston Taco Pop-Up Will Take Over the Kitchen at Grand Prize Bar | Eater Houston

"A longtime Houston pop-up that has taken a permanent residency in the Museum District, operating curbside takeout from the kitchen at 1010 Banks Street Thursdays through Sundays. The operation specializes in tacos on hand-pressed corn tortillas that are fermented for four days, with a focused menu of barbacoa, pollo asada, aguacate and al pastor finished with cilantro, onion, lime and salsa verde and accompanied by house-pickled carrots, cauliflower and serranos. Co-owned by Elyse Monzon and chef Albert Vasquez, the team emphasizes a small, precise menu for consistency, draws on global fermentation and preservation techniques, and aims to contribute to South Texas cuisine while serving the city’s working-class community; pickup hours are noon–8 p.m. Thursdays–Sundays and orders are placed via the restaurant’s website." - Brittanie Shey
