Looking for Flavor at Tres Jalapenos


Brian Freedman checks out Tres Jalapenos at 8th and Christian and just wishes the seasoning was turned up a bit.

In speaking with general manager Max Di Pettusanto, it became apparent that enormous pride is being taken in the quality of the prep processes here. Lots of love is being lavished on this food, from the in-house crafting of the crispy taco shells to the long work of stewing the meats. Unfortunately, these efforts were too often obscured by errors in execution.
