Taco of the Week: Tacos al Vapor at Nomad Tacos by Kitchen Zus - Texas Monthly

Posted: 07 Apr 2020 01:16 PM PDT

Nomad Tacos by Kitchen Zus, a Mexican food pop-up that began serving at Dallas-area breweries late last year, has been doing so well it's become the main source of income for its owner, classically trained private chef Zuriel Barradas Picazo. The mobile taqueria's offerings include straightforward carnitas that are braised in a copper cazo and sprinkled with onion and cilantro as well as a sweet and spicy beef bulgogi Korean taco topped with a rainbow slaw of purple and green cabbages, heirloom carrot, watermelon radish, and a rich, hot Japanese mayonnaise with a dash of Mexican piloncillo (an unrefined cane sugar).

As items on the menu, written graffiti-style on a piece of plywood, sell out, Barradas Picazo or a crew member crosses them out. Nomad Tacos's brief service might be announced as four- to five-hour shifts, but he usually sells out in two. Barradas Picazo, who often cooks while wearing a black chef's coat or black T-shirt, earlobe plugs, a backward ball cap, and horn-rimmed glasses, hasn't bothered with much in the way of advertising. He posts to Instagram and lets word of mouth do the rest. His aesthetic is DIY, which is to say very Mexican—making the best with what you have to create a vibrant handmade product. It's holistic and adaptable.

Weekly-El-Kitchen-Zus-tacos-de-hongos — The oyster mushroom taco al vapor.

That remains true with the current COVID-19 restrictions, but Barradas Picazo says a little tweaking has been required. "I used to book sixty days out," he tells me. "Now, I'm calling or texting breweries weekly." While some breweries allow him to cook inside—as Barradas Picazo has done in the past at Celestial Beerworks, Odd Muse Brewing, and Trinity Cider—he can no longer do at so at others, which means he can't cook to order. That was the case at his recent stop at Peticolas Brewing Company.

Before COVID-19, Nomad Tacos set up in the brewery's back room, but when the city shut down bars, Barradas Picazo had to brainstorm. "I decided to go with tacos al vapor at Peticolas," he says. If you haven't heard of traditional tacos al vapor, they're prepared in a steamer or similar vessel (vapor translates to steamed) ahead of time. (If you've watched Netflix's Taco Chronicles, you might be familiar with tacos de canasta, which are steamed in woven baskets. Tacos de canasta are not commonly available across Texas; tacos al vapor, on the other hand, are.)

About four days before his pop-up at Peticolas, Barradas Picazo posted a link on Instagram to the preorder system, along with a menu of four types of tacos al vapor: farm-field fresh hongos (mushrooms); papas con rajas, soft tubes of dense mashed potato with slivers of mild roasted poblanos; the fiery bramble of puerco en salsa verde; and the soft arroz con pollo. Pickup was operated as a drive-through. Each taco was wrapped in foil and placed into a biodegradable to-go box. The only interaction was a black latex-gloved hand reaching into the warming box (a portable cooler heated with bricks) and passing the tacos into the car.

My favorite taco was the puerco en salsa verda, which featured fierce clumps of pork in a salsa verde so nice and spicy that it caused precipitation on the bridge of my nose. Next was the thick mixture of black beans, corn kernels, and meaty oyster mushrooms from Texas Fungus that played well with the warm, chewy corn tortillas. I also enjoyed the papas con rajas—mostly for the light heat of the chiles. The arroz con pollo was loose and thin as a filling. I wanted more of it.

That's part of the point of tacos al vapor. One should be able to eat a platter of them and go in for seconds. Some I've encountered are filled with nothing more than a smear of rich, fatty refried beans. If you don't destroy at least five of those, you'll go hungry.

The salsas were wonderful and varied. The salsa cruda, a bare assembly with a base of pickled onions and chiles that worked up to a near-uncomfortable crescendo of capsicum, bolstered the arroz con pollo. The salsa verde and salsa roja each brought their own heat, though the green was brighter and spicy from the start, while the red's smoky spice pinched the back of the throat.

Expect more such premade tacos at Peticolas. The freshly made tacos will remain at interior set-ups like the aforementioned breweries. Follow Kitchen.Zus on Instagram to keep up with his schedule and get your taco fix at what he's now calling "pandemic pop-ups," one of the ways the taco is thriving during COVID-19.

Lady Gaga hit up every late night show after bailing on Fallon last week - The Loop

Posted: 07 Apr 2020 06:51 AM PDT

Last week when Lady Gaga left Jimmy Fallon high and dry on his at-home show, she left us with some major secondhand embarrassment and a deep feeling of cringe. She seemed distracted and apologetic, but OH BOY if that wasn't some of the most awkward TV to grace our screens since John Travolta said "Adele Dazeem."

The "Stupid Love" songstress had promised a big announcement on his show, but during her brief appearance, her phone kept ringing off the hook so she bailed in favour of appearing on Jimmy's show Monday night. And let us tell you, it was worth the wait.

In the span of those few days, she delayed the release of her new album Chromatica (bummer), and made the huge announcement that she's been putting together a big "One World: Together At Home" COVID-19 global benefit concert in conjunction with the WHO that will feature huge stars like Paul McCartney, Lizzo, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Alanis Morrisette, Billie Eillish, Eddie Vedder, Stevie Wonder, Elton John and many more.

Finally, Mama Monster returned to Jimmy Fallon, direct from her quarantine in the Haus of Gaga, to smooth things over from last week and talk a bit more about the "One World" show. Plus she came bossed up and prepared. Dressed smartly in a tweed jacket, a black turtleneck, black rimmed glasses and her hair pulled into a neat bun, she put on her best *ahem* Poker Face and asked, "Would you like to know who's hosting?"

"Yeah, I would love to know who's hosting," Jimmy said.

"You," she laughed. "I got Jimmy Fallon. And guess who else I got? Kimmel and Colbert!"

Wow, it's a trifecta of late night kings (no shade to Seth Meyers or James Corden). Naturally, because hosting duties will be split between the three, Gaga had to make an appearance on all three shows. On the same night! See, this is a clear benefit to doing at-home shows. On Colbert, her announcement brought out his true snark side. "We are honoured to be up there with you," he proclaimed on behalf of him and the two Jimmies. "Just like Bradley Cooper in A Star Is Born, we'll be standing next to you peeing our pants on live TV."

"No, you can't do that," Gaga ordered.

On Kimmel, she talked very frankly about all the work and coordination with major tech companies and broadcast media it took to make this TV special a reality. "I'm making a lot of phone calls," she explained via video chat, "helping to fund raise with the WHO and Global Citizen and we're really excited about this show because we didn't want it to be a fundraiser. We want everyone to put their wallets away and sit back and enjoy the show. We already have raised $35 million for this solidarity response fund."

Dang, Gaga! $35 million dollars raised in a week and we don't have to do anything but watch? That's some serious coinage. Colour us impressed.

But the one detail she made sure to speak about on all three shows was probably the most show-stopping and all-important of all—our friends from Sesame Street will be on the show!

"That's fantastic—a Muppet can be used as a face mask in an emergency," Colbert joked (we think). Now we know that donations aren't the main goal of "One World," but we will donate our last dime just to hear Bert and Ernie sing "Rubber Ducky" again. That track slaps.
