Never underestimate the taco.

Especially ones you can get in a gas station parking lot or maybe filled with spicy grasshoppers.

Today we’re heading out with Seattle Times food critic Tan Vinh to find out what he learned after eating 500 tacos in Western Washington.

We visit two taquerias along the way, Taqueria Los Potrillos #1 in the Rainier Valley and Casa Mixteca in Burien.
