"Things we love that are orange? Tang, the Reddit logo (no, it’s not red—look again), and the tacos at Quesabirria Jalisco in Pilsen. They’re orange by virtue of being doused in chili-laden consomé, layered with cheese, packed with juicy beef birria (or chicken, or shrimp), and perfectly crisped up on the grill. The tacos come with salsas, including a creamy and spicy “bussin sauce” that also happens to be orange. But our allegiance is to the combination of birria topped with the wonderfully spicy salsa verde that cuts through the richness. Like its menu, the counter-service space is small—there are only four tables, so unless you get lucky, plan on placing your order to go." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor, jessica rome
