La Tingeria Fallschurch

What began in 2013 as a food truck has settled into a funky counter-service spot on South Washington Street, bringing Mexico City street flavors to diners keeping a halal diet. The menu ranges beyond birria to feature chicken tinga, al pastor, and cups of rich consommé, dished out in notably generous portions with handmade salsas and aguas frescas. Powered by an avid Taco Tuesday routine and food made the slow way by hand, the operation has expanded well past its local base into Alexandria and Spotsylvania.
