Discover the flavors of Mexican street food in your own kitchen

Americans are having a love affair with the taco. What began as affection for the fast-food version--that hard yellow shell filled with ground beef and mysterious yellow cheese--has blossomed into an all-out obsession for the real thing, with upscale renditions and taco trucks popping up from coast to coast.

Now, with Tacos, Tortas, and Tamales, chef Roberto Santiba ez shows you how to recreate the thrilling, authentic flavors of the taquerias of Mexico in your own home. In addition to tacos, the book also explores the equally exciting Mexican sandwiches called tortas and hearty tamales, as well as salsas, condiments, fresh juices, and even desserts and refreshing margaritas.

  • Author Roberto Santiba ez is also the author of Rosa's New Mexican Table and Truly Mexican, as well as the chef and owner of Fonda restaurants in Brooklyn and Manhattan
  • Santiba ez's Truly Mexican was chosen as a New York Times Notable Cookbook of 2011
  • Using easy-to-find ingredients and simple techniques, this is the perfect introduction to real Mexican cooking for enthusiastic beginners and experienced cooks alike

While the flavors you'll find here are exciting and complex, the cooking itself is anything but complicated. With Tacos, Tortas, and Tamales on your kitchen shelf, dinner will never be dull again.

They Shouldn’t Work But Here We Are
Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Mystic Purple
Let’s address the elephant in the room: Crocs look like a rubber cheese grater had a baby with a sandal. And yet somehow these things are a parenting cheat code. The comfort is unreal (10/10). Kids slip them on and suddenly they’re walking on clouds, bouncing around like tiny caffeinated marshmallows. Cleaning them is almost suspiciously easy (10/10) mud, juice, questionable playground goo just rinse and move on like nothing ever happened. The ventilation holes (9/10) actually do their job, keeping little feet from becoming sweaty disasters, though they also double as convenient entry points for sand, pebbles, and whatever treasures your kid decides to collect. Style wise (7/10), look… no one is winning fashion awards here, but kids love them and confidence is half the battle. The heel strap (9/10) deserves a medal flip it back and suddenly your child enters “sport mode” like a video game character with boosted speed stats. The color options (10/10) are wild enough to satisfy even the most chaotic tiny human, from neon explosions to surprisingly normal shades. They’re ridiculously lightweight (10/10), which is great until your kid forgets they’re wearing them and tries to wear them to bed. Durability (9/10) is solid they can handle running, jumping, puddle stomping, and general kid nonsense without falling apart. And the independence factor (10/10) Huge. No laces, no struggle, no dramatic “I can’t do it!” moments just slip on and go. Crocs as a brand (9/10) clearly know their lane comfort over cool, and honestly, it works. Final Score: 9.2/10 They may not be pretty, but they’re practical, indestructible, and weirdly lovable like the chicken nuggets of footwear

Kid friendly
Size: 6 Big Kid, Color: Blue Calcite
Easy to slip on, and simple to clean, which is really convenient. My child says they’re comfortable for playing outside and wearing around the house. The only downside is they can get a little slippery on wet surfaces, and the fit seems slightly wide. Overall, they’re durable and practical, but maybe not the best option for every activity. I buy new crocs for my kids every year, we love it! Add little charms to create your child’s own croc style.

Expensive and Ugly
Size: 3 Little Kid, Color: Blue Bolt
My grandson loves and wears crocs all the time so he really appreciated a new pair of them. I personally think they’re ugly and would never wear. Rubber shoes?! Ridiculous. There’s plenty of other stylish and nice looking shoes that are just as comfortable. The cost of crocs is crazeeee! That’s why I will only give 4 stars. However, it was all about pleasing my grandkid.

Good looking shirts. Will not disappoint.
Size: Large, Color: Carbon Heather
These shirts are a great quality. They wash great with no shrinkage. They are very comfortable based on my husband’s feedback. They look as advertised. The variation in colors were perfect. The size fits perfectly. My husband is an XL for the long sleeve but a L for the short sleeved Carhartt T-shirts. The neckline is comfortable. Would recommend to others and will be purchasing more.
