The Best Things We Ate This Week

"Dish: El Jefe taco with carne asada en chile de arbol The El Jefe taco at Zona Rosa in the Castro is the most traditional taco on the menu, which is exactly why it's great. You can choose from any of the seven protein options, like carnitas and carne asada, but get the carne asada en chile de arbol for a spicy mess that will slather your mouth with slow-cooked red salsa and a generous amount of lime juice. Each is topped with just cilantro, onion, lime, and salsa, allowing you to appreciate the diced carne asada’s tenderness, and the tortilla is served piping hot—just as it should be. You should get about three (or four if you’re hungry). " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
