Guía Domingo: Tacos Monterrey - Hardcover

by Pedro Reyes (Author), Nicholas Meehan (Editor), Alberto Rassam (Editor)

A city fueled by early mornings and hard work, this guide captures Monterrey's taco culture--from morning tacos to all-day taquerías at the heart of Mexico's industrial capital.

Guía Domingo: Monterrey is the fourth volume of a project born to celebrate one of Mexico's most powerful shared rituals: tacos. In a city shaped by fire, work, and character, taco culture takes on a distinct identity--direct, generous, and deeply rooted in tradition.

This volume explores Monterrey through its taquerías: places defined by mastery of the grill, respect for the tortilla, and a relentless pursuit of flavor. Each selection reflects not trends, but substance--legacy spots, new voices, and tacos that speak clearly of where they come from.

Built through careful research and close collaboration with the city's taco community, this book lives at the intersection of food, photography, design, and culture. More than a guide, Guía Domingo: Monterrey is a record of how Monterrey eats, gathers, and expresses itself--one taco at a time.
