The first Mexican taco stand to get a Michelin star is a tiny business where the heat makes the meat

Michelin-starred chef Arturo Rivera Martinez stands over an insanely hot grill at the first Mexican taco stand to get a coveted star. In this tiny, 10-foot by 10-foot business, the heat makes the meat and there are only four things on the menu, all of which came from a cow's rib, loin or fore shank. Other than a street food stand in Bangkok, Thailand, Mexico City's Tacos El Califa de León is probably the smallest restaurant ever to get a Michelin star. And it got there by doing exactly the same four things it has been doing since 1968.
