Inside Taquería La Milpa
La Milpa started as a single griddle at the Saturday market on Cordova. Two years and one very small kitchen later, we still do the part that matters the same way: corn soaked and ground here, tortillas pressed to order, nothing sitting under a heat lamp waiting for you.
The salsas are the reason most people come back. There are five on the counter at any time, they change with what the growers up the valley bring us, and the person at the register will happily walk you through all of them before you commit.
