Down the street in a small store front a master craftsman fabricates the best tacos in town.  The cleaver cuts across the conversation and the steam warms hearts and mouths.  The prices clear.  The cilantro fresh. The cheese chopped.  He has taken his second generation skills and turned them into food for his family.
