The 22 Best Tacos In Austin - Austin - The Infatuation

"Carnitas Ricos operates out of a gas station near the South Terminal of the airport, but even if you have no plans to board a budget flight to Palm Beach, it's worth a visit. Order by the taco or by the pound, then watch as a massive, jiggly slab of pork—filled with golden bits of belly, fat, and skin—gets thrown onto a giant cutting board and minced into a beautiful meat mosaic. It’s served in a takeout container with a small mountain of tortillas for DIY tacos." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
