A growing number of Black chefs and restaurateurs throughout the region are turning to the unifying power of the taco to create a uniquely Detroit-style take on Latin street food (via EaterDetroit)
Shell Shock’d isn’t alone in its pursuit to use the taco as a unifying force.
The pint-sized Pequeño, situated on the Avenue of Fashion and owned by restaurateur Frank Blackman, opened in 2021, ushering in a much-needed option to the Northwest side — an area that some taco aficionados say has historically been underrepresented in Mexican cuisine offerings.
Meanwhile, on the eastside, Ivy Kitchen and Cocktails’s Nya Marshall is banking on the rush of Detroiters expected to hit the city this week for Cinco de Mayo festivities by offering a special spread in recognition of the holiday from 11 a.m. to midnight on Friday, May 5, featuring pork and beef carnitas, mezcal-marinated wings, jalapeño margaritas, and the spot’s popular wonton tacos.
“I am drawn to many elements of Mexican culture simply because I appreciate it. This includes Mexican food, art, and fashion,” Marshall tells Eater in an email. “I wanted to feature it in a way that people identify with. Everyone has dinner and what better way than through the use of food to showcase [the] love and appreciation I have for their culture.”
For Shell Shock’d, the opening of the restaurant is just the beginning, Andrews says, pointing to the likes of Cardi B, Offset, Megan Thee Stallion, and others in the hip-hop world that have been able to leverage their star power to land major corporate“We see Shell Shock’d as becoming that,” Andrews says. “We believe every the world should be able to taste Shell Shock’d so we just act as [such] now.”Check your inbox for a welcome email.
