Taqueria mexicaine · Carcassonne

Mexico has unpacked its bags in Carcassonne

A family taqueria on boulevard de Varsovie. Cooked fresh every day, local produce wherever possible, house-made sauces. Spicy only if you ask.

Setting things straight

The taco. The real one.

In Mexico, a taco is a soft tortilla, usually corn, filled with something properly cooked, then folded and eaten with your hands. Nothing to do with the French « tacos », that pressed and grilled thing. What we serve is the real one: fresh, generous, full of flavour.

  • 1The tortillaCorn or wheat, soft. Never pressed, never grilled flat.
  • 2The fillingCooked here: Aveyron pork slow-cooked for hours, chicken marinated in spices.
  • 3The fresh partSweet onion in lime juice, pickled red onion, coriander.
  • 4The sauceSalsa verde, pico de gallo, salsa macha. Chilli stays on request.

Eat it with your fingers. Or elegantly, if you prefer. Your call.

Order

Honestly, best to come in

A taco should be eaten hot, with your hands, five minutes out of the kitchen. Everything else is a compromise — but we won't judge.

Eat in

The room, the smell of the plancha, the sauces within reach and the heat set to your taste. This is where the cooking is at its best.
