Profile

The first solo project from David Duran, the opening GM at MXco, El Camion, isn’t actually a truck; it’s a pine-paneled corner spot with 40 seats, plus 12 at a bar where the house margaritas are spiked with Patrón. It’s located right around the corner from Diablo Royale Este; and a couple of blocks from Mercadito, meaning Alphabet City has basically become Taco Town. — Daniel Maurer
