Taqueando with Bill Esparza

Put Some Respect on Panamanian Cuisine


Listen Later

On this episode of Taqueando, Bill Esparza sits down with acclaimed Panamanian chef José Olmedo Carles Rojas, the force behind Venice’s buzzworthy restaurant Sí! Mon. They dive deep into Panamanian cuisine, José’s celebrated restaurants in Panama City, and the challenge of introducing Los Angeles to an entirely new culinary language—while staying true to tradition and flavor.

Bill also shares highlights from a recent knockout meal at Mariscos Los Corchos in Bloomington, CA, then answers listener questions in a rapid-fire Q&A. He offers restaurant recommendations for Flagstaff, Arizona and Quito, Ecuador, busts common myths about enchiladas and salsa, and shares his favorite drinks to pair with street tacos and other street food staples.
