The restaurant chain by legendary L.A. actor Danny Trejo was featured in Bourdain’s In Parts Unknown. He dined at Trejo’s Cantina in Hollywood and feasted on Grilled Chicken, Charred Branzino and Crispy Pork Tacos. While these might not be the best tacos in town, they manage to create a healthy, locally sourced take on Mexican street food staples without losing flavor. Also, it’s Machete, guys!
