Celebrity chef Aarón Sánchez hits the Windy City and samples the best traditional and twisted tacos in town. First stop is the Pilsen Neighborhood — a hub for Hispanic culture that's home to Carnitas Uruapan, a place locals love for their succulent carnitas and crunchy chicharrones. Next up, Aarón hits Antique Taco for a Midwest twist on the nacho - poutine-style cheddar cheese curds in pork chorizo chili! Then it's on to Big Star in Wicker Park for a fabulous fish taco. And finally, get some authentically-prepared — and very tasty — goat tacos from Birrieria Zaragoza. Their closely guarded 150 year-old recipe from the Mexican State of Jalisco will have your mouth watering!
This trip, Guy Fieri's circling back to some of the hottest home-cookin' hangouts! In Austin, Texas, a mom-and-pop spot is expanding, still doin' it all from scratch with the-bomb bacon marmalade-blue cheese pizza and a spicy salsa-chicken pie. Louisiana comfort food is goin' strong on the North Shore of New Orleans, firin' up country-fried chicken and smothering seafood-stuffed pasta with creamy crawfish. And in Chicago, a brother-sister team is drawing even more crowds with their creative Korean, servin' Seoul-style street dumplings and out-of-bounds beef soup.
