This week, Eat. Talk. Repeat. hits the Tacos & Tamales Festival with Vegas legend Leticia "Letty" Mitchell - the force behind Letty's, Leticia's Cocina, and the new Carmelita's Mar Y Tierra. From birria ramen to nopales fries, Letty dishes on her Vegas food roots, the red flags of bad Mexican, and why tacos should be messy and magical. Bonus: seared hot dogs, surprise pasta, and John nerding out (again).
