Chapultepec

One of Chapultepec's best-kept secrets is the ad hoc taco stand that pops up outside the restaurant late on Friday nights; it offers full service inside the restaurant every other day of the week. Cooks grill juicy carnitas and carne asada in the South Florida breeze, hitting each fragrant stack of meat with chopped onion, cilantro, and lime before wrapping it in a corn tortilla. It's a South Florida scene like none other, and it's not uncommon to find whole families stuffing spicy tacos in their faces alongside construction workers, covered in sweat and grit after a day at the job site.
