SEATED at the counter at Taqueria Mexico here, you can see a woman making tortillas through the open kitchen door. With quick, confident movements, she volleys the dough between her palms before smacking it onto the press. It’s a spirited rhythm: Slap, slap, slap, bam!
Ardent authenticity distinguishes this little East End place (just five tables and three red stools at a tiny counter) in the local landscape of Latin cuisine. But Taqueria Mexico is not alone: Latin American restaurateurs are turning out traditional cuisine in no-frills spots across Long Island.”*
