Taco month continues at Las Musas

There are plenty of restaurant scene team-ups around at the moment, as Las Musas's Taco Month continues.

For each week in July, starting July 1, they'll be featuring dishes from their talented collaborators.

That menu includes Vietnamese-Mexican fusions like grilled lemongrass chicken leg tacos, peppery pork neck and papaya salad tacos, and tacos featuring Susu's signature La Vong fish.
