Bib Gourmand : nossas melhores relações qualidade-preço
Come as you are, and come early, to this East Austin taqueria from owners and partners Chef Edgar Rico and Sara Mardanbigi. It's a bit scrappy but rewards its visitors with spot-on Mexican-focused cooking. As the name suggests, the menu is all about nixtamalized corn of heirloom varietals. Everything is made in house and the menu presents a great mix of contrasts, featuring dishes employing ancient methods alongside updated items like duck fat refried beans. The duck carnitas taco, served on a thick tortilla made from heirloom pink corn, is impressive, while the carrot tostada is a study in care and composure with charred carrots, whipped herb ricotta, and salsa macha. Finish with something bold and sweet like a blueberry, basil, and ricotta paleta.

"We source mostly hyper-locally, except for our heirloom corn which comes from a 5th generation family of farmers in San Martín Tilcajete, Oaxaca and is used to make our own masa and tortillas. Additionally, we have an onsite garden dedicated to growing various crops for the restaurant and the community fridges."

— Edgar Rico / Sara Mardanbigi
