"You won't need to check your map to find this spot, as this bi-level space has a line that stretches down the block. Don't worry, as the line moves quickly at this locals' favorite. The large menu offers plenty of choices, but all eyes are on the tacos, especially their signature carnitas piled high on a double layer of soft corn tortillas. Other tacos to consider include the costilla de res, a tender bone-in beef rib that's packed with flavor. Portions are generous and prices are fair at this unfussy taqueria that runs on cash only." - Michelin Inspector
"Considered one of the best places to eat carnitas in Mexico City, El Gran Abanico is a local gem in the Tránsito neighborhood. While the taquería serves pastor, grilled steak, and longaniza tacos, focus on the carnitas. Order a surtida taco — a mix of lean and fatty pork meat — or, if you’re feeling more ambitious, order a pork shank served with fried beans, guacamole, and tortillas. If you take a car: Uber is the best way to get there, and be sure to bring pesos." - Natalia de la Rosa
