About From Tacos to Tahdig Book Tour

Nixta Taqueria brings its From Tacos to Tahdig cookbook tour to YELLOW Union Market with a Chicken Milanesa Pita Sando served from 11AM until sold out. A book signing follows, with Iranian, Mexican, and Palestinian flavors on the menu.

At Nixta Taqueria

Duck confit gets reworked as carnitas, and the masa is made from scratch using heirloom corn nixtamalized in-house. The tuna tostada (citrus-cured yellowfin with furikake on a handmade crispy base) is the dish people end up planning return visits around. Walk up for counter tacos any day, or book ahead for the indoor tasting menu when you want the full experience.
