    Oaxacan Mexican

    This Oaxacan food truck lives in an open-air lot on Alum Rock that feels like a little food village, and it's worth the detour for the tlayudas alone. They fold theirs over instead of serving them flat, and the charcoal grill underneath gives the whole thing a smoky, crispy edge that separates it from the pack. Casual families, weekend regulars, and people who clearly know their Oaxacan food fill the covered outdoor tables.
