Carnitas Lonja

Carnitas Lonja has an outdoor counter-serve taqueria, and carnitas stand for Mexican street eats in a communal setting. From the Eater 18 Best Restaurants in America of 2018, 'Marveling over a feast at Alex Paredes’s counter-service restaurant on the South Side of San Antonio brought to mind Japan’s concept of shokunin, or absorption and virtuosity in one’s profession. Paredes is the master of carnitas. He slow-cooks them for hours until the ropy, near-greaseless hunks of pork reveal a gamut of textures in every bite: crisp, supple, lacy, chewy. His staff fashions corn tortillas by hand with exactly the right heft to handle the carnitas, which are the breadth of the Lonja experience. Order sides of guacamole and chorizo (for yet more texture) alongside the complimentary red and green salsas. Grab a seat along the small counter or, like most customers, head outside to a shaded picnic table. In its devotion to one specialty rendered spectacularly well, Carnitas Lonja is complete, and it is wonderful.'
