Thrillist just turned us on to Lost Taco, a brand new blog for anyone who has ever uttered the words "there are no good tacos in this city." Started by a transplanted Angeleno, the site only has seven entries to date, and they're all in Queens or Brooklyn, but Lost Taco promises to eventually hit up Manhattan. Only two of the seven places he writes about are recommended, including Taqueria El Paisa in Bushwick and Tacos Guicho's in Jackson Heights. Having moved here from Los Angeles myself, I must say I've had a lot more trouble finding a decent burrito than a taco; although admitedly I live around the corner from Tehuitzingo, a Hell's Kitchen taqueria that could easily hang with any of the places in L.A. You should check it out when you finally make it to the big island. Some of our other recommendations are down below. Good luck and godspeed, Lost Taco. We're all rooting for you.
