street tacos are a not guilty at all pleasure. >> for me, something of an obsession. they always make me happy but mexican food has been redefining itself in significant ways for years here and in mexico across the city, young extremely talented chefs are taking mexican traditions to next level and beyond maybe the most exciting new frontier of modern cooking chef ray garcia, a native angeleno, is one of those pioneers located in the heart of downtown is broken spanish a higher end, higher priced mexican restaurant than most are accustomed to chef eddie ruiz and robin chopra are childhood friends who opened the wonderful but short lived out the california gastropub corazon emile, which put them both on the map in la's

burgeoning modern mexican dining scene i absolutely believe that the next big thing is a reevaluation of mexican flavors and ingredients and a and a reevaluation of how much you should pay. i mean, people love it but their expectation is mexican food should be cheap. and the fact is there's always going to be new arrivals from mexico who are perfectly willing to sell you unfortunately or fortunately really good mexican food for very cheap. but not the kind of deep flavors that you know, you find or i found in my travels there. >> well, sometimes in the mexican world, the only thing that's passed down is not a home. it's not a necklace. what it is, is a recipe passed down from generation to generation. it all comes from these rustic dishes that our grandmothers and grandpas cooked for us do you have any responsibility to preserve and protect the traditional flavors ingredients of mexico or do you or not? yeah, of course, everything

that you see here in front of you is inspired by something that we had as a child. but how do we present that with our training, and how do we present that with our experience that's going to give people value to want to pay more for it. >> i think that los angeles is kind of the stage for that next level and and chef ray's doing a really good job of that he's presenting stuff like this and that's what's going to elevate people's mindset in terms of what you can do with this food chicharron skin on pork. >> cured and salted. cooked sous vide for 36 hours, then deep fried and served with elephant garlic mojo and radish sprouts tamales of slow cooked lamb neck with oyster mushrooms and queso oaxaca camote an okinawan sweet potato filled with pork. the ears, tails and snout topped with a
