The one inside Carnicerias Guanajuato on Ashland has always been legit too.

Thank you, Zach. Hard to step away because this is my living, but today I'll be cooking...so no computers later!

DM me your address. I’ll start mailing hard copies of my comments! I knew I should have saved the return address from the steel pan!

Wow, I've never been inside Talard Thai, although I've passed it probably a hundred times. I'm definitely compelled to check it out now! Another taco-stand-inside-a-market I'd add to this list is Carniceria Maribel on Cermak & Wood in Pilsen. Also, the only al pastor on a trompo I've seen in Chicago is at Atotonilco (I'm sure there are others, just have never noticed). I believe they have multiple locations across the city, but the one I frequent is off Blue Island & 16th. Had it last night, actually.... bomb as always.
