Over the Christmas Holiday I rediscovered some neighborhoods in Denver. Santa Fe is now Denver's official arts district. Once lined with strip joints, liquor stores and factories, this rail-side boulevard now hosts the Museo de las Americas, the Denver Homesteading Building, tons of galleries, and an upcoming performing arts center. Along with this gentrification I noticed some colorful taco joints...vinyl seats, murals and wrought iron-esque grated windows. The food was a little on the greasy side, but the salsas were sabrosas and the horchata tops.
Excellent Mexican food has also moved into Seattle's industrial SODO. El Camión's vegetarian tacos are truly full of flavorful vegetables and the fish tacos distinguish it from the others. Complete with a picnic tent and foosball, El Camión also serves coke it a bottle. If you hang out under the heat-lamp and close your eyes, it's almost like being at Los Mariscos de Sandy in San Jose del Cabo.
