This Tijuana-style taco shop from SoCal is just the ticket when it's way late, you've got almost no money left and you're desperately craving carne asada (beef) or adobada (chili-marinated pork) tacos in hot, handmade tortillas. Adventurous eaters will be lured by the authentic sesos (beef brains), cabeza (roasted cow's head) or tripe (intestines) variations.
