How Indigenous Taqueros From Oaxaca Made LA the Capital for CDMX-Style Al Pastor
Mixe taqueros have been a huge reason why LA has such great al pastor tacos
You might not know it, but Los Angeles’s most frequented trompos, like the ones at Tacos Leo (aka Leo’s Taco Truck) and Tacos Tamix, are helmed by people of the mixe Indigenous group. Mixe are one of the many Indigenous peoples from Oaxaca who came to settle in Southern California, assembling what is colloquially called Oaxacalifornia. These groups, including zapotecos and mixtecos, continue to educate Angelenos about Mexico’s most culinarily diverse state.
