Jessup is for Jalapenos

Jessup is located in Howard and Anne Arundel county, 10 miles south of Baltimore.  It is the home of taquerias, taco stands and one of the largest Mexican and Salvadoran populations in Maryland.

I’m a big sucker for street tacos and everyone who feels the same way knows Chef Rod at R&R Taqueria.  If you’ve grown up around Jessup, you may have visited Rod when he first started as just a humble hole in the wall at the side of  a gas station.  But when Guy Fieri joined him at Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, Rod was able to achieve national recognition. Now the taqueria is a famous icon in Jessup, just as much as Maryland Live!

Perhaps R&R the trend, and there are so many other options now.I’ve gotten to try Los Antojitos just down the road. You can have tacos with Rod and sopa across the street.

The menudo is out of this world, but there’s another dish that has captured my imagination – sopa de pollo.

You obviously don’t have to visitar un restaurante to get the chow down on authentic street tacos here. There are plenty of taco stands that prepare excellent fillings wrapped in a corn tortilla.

The street vendor that stands out is Taqueria Los Primos – it’s so damn good they have two locations.

Hands down they are the best tacos in the area. For $10, I got two Al Pastor and two panceta (pork belly). Everything comes with a side of fresh radishes and cucumbers, along with grilled onions and peppers!

There’s so much filling, my belly was full before I finished my pork delicacy. And they’re so addicting, I returned the next day for more.

Don’t know what else to add. All I can say is writing this review has whetted my appetite, and I can’t wait to return.
