Street Taco Wars: Boise vs. Canyon County
One of the Treasure Valley’s most popular taco trucks — Birrieria Garnacha Que Apapacha — is moving from Nampa to Boise, and not everyone is thrilled about it. Taco enthusiasts Evelyn Avitia and Rebecca De León join Host Emma Arnold to talk about how Canyon County taco culture compares to Boise and how to find the taco truck that will never fail you.
And shoutout to former Idaho Statesman reporter Nicole Foy whose street taco guide gave us plenty of inspiration for this conversation.
