Midtown Lunch’s Ultimate Taco Crawl Map

Zach Brooks, formidable food blogger behind Midtown Lunch has just published what is thus far the taco post of the year-- a description (with photos and map) of the perfect 2 hour L.A. Taco crawl. This route will take you from Los Feliz to Downtown to East Los Angeles, giving you delicious tacos of varied styles and preparations along the way. This is the route you want to use with out of town guests or local friends who ask where all the good Mexican food is. From the post:

Why eat at one place, when you can eat at 5. In other words, there is a pretty spectacular lunchtime taco crawl to be had between Los Feliz and Boyle Heights. And the best part is, you not only get to try 5 completely different styles of taco, but it can all be done in two hours if you don’t dilly dally.
