Taco Under Review: Asada
Value: $
There are many myths about the protein that goes in tacos. Now don’t act surprised, you’ve heard the stories ; ) But in case you’re craving high quality asada (beef) taco, don’t look further–Hollywood’s El Zarape’s got you! I bit into my Al Zarape asada expecting the usual asada taco chewiness but to my surprise it felt like a quality steak: tender and juicy.
All Ratings from 1-10:
Happiness Dosage: 8.8 🙂 This taco does indeed make you happy; both during consumption and digestion.
Taste of the Protein: 9.9 Does it get any better than this?
Tortilla: 7 The tortilla did not come at par with the quality and the taste of the protein.
Salsa (asada comes with verde): 7 Decent salsa verde but had it been a little spicier, the overall experience would have been significantly better.
Blend of ingredients: 8.5
Vibes of the Taqueria: 7 Situated in a cozy corner of residential East Hollywood, with its outdoor seating, Al Zarape offers cozy vibes, especially on nights when they play Rock en Español.
