Where To Catch Up With Your Friend Who Out-Summered You - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"You can almost lose count of the number of friends that went to Tulum, Cabo, or Cancun this summer. And even though they only dined at the resort’s mediocre buffet, they now believe every taco in Philly tastes like cardboard. To offer them the only (actual) good taco they’ve had in weeks, head to South Philly’s La Canasta. From classic al pastor and carne tacos to cheesy enchiladas, everything wrapped in a flour tortilla here is cooked to perfection. " - Candis Mclean
