For you readers frustrated that media outlets (Chicagoist included) don't pay enough attention to the South Side in our "best of" lists we ask, nay, demand you head over to Serious Eats Chicago, which has posted a list of 25 tacos on the city's South Side that will satisfy urban explorers and gourmands in equal measure.

The list compiled by Titus Ruscitti is heavy on Pilsen and Little Village spots but Ruscitti does delve deep into West Lawn, the far Southwest side, Hegewisch and the Southeast side and even into Indiana. You could spend a weekend exhausting the Pilsen and Little Village spots alone and we highly recommend you do so, since Friday was National Taco Day but every day is Taco day in Chicago.
