Austin’s Taco Mile takes eaters off the trendy taco path. | via TexasStandard
on the Taco Mile and how its existence shows a history of gentrification, but also a celebration of immigrant culture.This transcript has been edited lightly for clarity:
Oh, yeah, completely. I mean, I think it goes back to just the history of Austin and moving people – predominantly Mexican-Americans and Black communities – to the east part of Austin. But you also see that people are pushed out even further east nowadays. They’re pushed into these small neighborhoods that, for the most part, go unnoticed.
Well, Austin is definitely an immigrant-friendly city, hands down. But unfortunately, what happens is a lot of those populations get ignored. You know, the Austin Taco Mile in the East Rundberg area, in a little strip mall you can have an African store next to a Chinese restaurant and next to a Mexican meat market. And part of that, you see the influx of immigrants. You know, even one of the interviews we did was with Jose Carrasco, and he’s a community activist there at Dobie Middle School.
Well, let’s talk about that. If you were visiting this area and you wanted to partake in some of the best cuisine out there, what would you recommend?
