Calgary Welcomes Michelin-Starred Tacos! 🌮✨
Hold the salsa - Calgary just got a taste of taco royalty! The world's only Michelin-starred taco joint, Mexico City's legendary El Califa de León, made a 4-day pitstop in our city (chef included, but blink and you missed him! 👨🍳⏳). 🍽️ The Taco Breakdown 1️⃣ Rib Eye Taco Premium AAA beef, but shockingly light on seasoning (purists will cheer, spice lovers will weep) Pro move: Squeeze extra lime + their arbol chili sauce 2️⃣ Duck Carnitas (Dark Horse Winner) Slow-braised duck with crispy skin - basically taco foie gras Hot tip: Order double, thank us later 3️⃣ Pork Al Pastor Traditional trompo-grilled pork, but needs more pineapple kick 4️⃣ Mushroom (For Veggie Friends) Smoky huitlacoche (corn fungus) steals the show 💰 Reality Check Damage: $18-25 for two tacos (yes, that's rent money in Mexico City) Vibe: Pop-up in a converted warehouse with mariachi vinyl spins The Catch: Chef's gone, but the food coma memories remain 🌮 Local vs. Fancy-Pants Spice Level: Tacos Mexico Memorial (our local hero) brings more heat Meat Quality: Michelin wins (that rib eye tho 🔥) Bang for Buck: 3 street tacos > 1 fancy taco (but #worthit for the 'gram) #CalgaryEats #MichelinMoments #TacoEmergency
