    In a recent episode of Throwdown, Bobby Flay took on a woman whose specialty was the "puffy taco." It differs from a regular taco in that the corn tortilla is deep fried and puffs up. The toppings seem the regular taco fixins and are put on top. The woman has a restaurant in San Antonio and I guess the puffy taco is a kind of specialty in that area. Does anyone know of any Chicago taquerias that make the puffy taco?

    Que Rico has something very similar - their hard shells have that puffy/bubbly texture to them.

    Maybe the Navajo Tacossold periodically at the Anawim Center would fill the bill.
