Tacos Al Pastor and Taco Suadero from Taqueria Arandas

After a long day at the Teotihuacan pyramids and lunch at Taqueria el Caifan, we went back to the hotel to rest. By the time we went out for dinner, it was raining heavily - torrential rain that I hadn't experienced in a long time! Our umbrellas could only do so much to keep us dry on our walk to Taqueria Arandas. In true foodie fashion, I ordered Tacos Al Pastor and Taco Suadero to compare them to the three taquerias we had tried earlier.

Taco Al Pastor was delicious but not as good as Taqueria Los Cocuyos, but it was close.

Meanwhile, the Taco Suadero was truly the best one we had tried. It was juicy, tender, and just flavorful overall. One blog post I read was correct - suadero (brisket) should be ordered in the evening after it has spent the whole day simmering and developing flavors.

The heavy rain did not stop, and we were soaked on our walk back to the hotel.
