Hi Casters. I love it when two food cultures come together and make something awesome. Apparently the Lebanese immigrants to Mexico brought shawarma with them and that resulted in the al pastor taco. I enjoyed a particularly good one at Los Tacos Numero Uno today https://maps.app.goo.gl/2d7FKMW4ztJJMGh1A?g_st=ac

Funny enough a bunch of us are grabbing tacos at this exact location before tonight's /ethereumfilm premiere! 🌮 The pastor is solid here, have you ever tried their off-menu cheese shell taco?

big fan of dishes that arose through cultural diffusion. A couple others that I'm fond of: banh mi: a combination of classic Vietnamese ingredients (plus pate) served on a baguette, introduced to the country by the French in the 19th c. vindaloo: developed in Goa in western India, derived from the Portuguese 'carne de vinha d'alhos' (meat of wine with garlic). As an interesting etymological note, many Indian chefs will include potatoes ('aloo' in Hindi) because of the false cognate. Vindaloo's journey from there to British Indian staple is a fascinating tale in its own right.

Korean shortribs (as we know them with the thin cross cut slices) have a similar story When Korean immigrants showed up in LA and wanted to make food from the motherland, that cut (used in a bunch of Latino cuisine) was the only shortrib cut they could find They made do, discovered it's actually great, and it became so popular that Korea Koreans adopted it too

Meat roasted on a spit is truly amazing! I dread the day it catches up to me in some form of food poisoning but we pray that never happens 🙏
