**The definitive word on tacos from native Angeleno Wes Avila, who
**draws on his Mexican heritage as well as his time in the kitchens of
some of the world's best restaurants to create taco perfection.
In a town overrun with taco trucks, Wes Avila's Guerrilla Tacos has
managed to win almost every accolade there is, from being crowned Best
Taco Truck by LA Weekly to being called one of the best things to eat
in Los Angeles by legendary food critic Jonathan Gold. Avila's approach
stands out in a crowded field because it's unique: the 50 base recipes
in this book are grounded in authenticity but never tied down to
tradition. Wes uses ingredients like kurobata sausage and sea urchin,
but his bestselling taco is made from the humble sweet potato. From
basic building blocks to how to balance flavor and texture, with
comic-inspired illustrations and stories throughout, Guerrilla Tacos
is the final word on tacos from the streets of L.A.
