Chef Fernanda’s Soft-Shell Crab Taco and Carajillo | The Pitch

Excerpt from The Pitch’s Secret Menu: Taco Naco KC
Words by Michael Mackie

Spanish carajillo cocktail

The Pitch KC’s 2022 Secret Menu feature looked beyond the everyday taco lineup at two dishes connected to Chef Fernanda Reyes’s memories: a soft-shell crab taco inspired by summers in Baja California and a Spanish carajillo served after a meal. The story also revisits TACO NACO KC’s start at the Overland Park Farmers’ Market.

Secret soft shell crab taco

Chef Fernanda described the crab taco as a special item with a crisp crab, creamy sauces and cabbage in a flour tortilla. The carajillo reflects the pleasure of slowing down after dinner to talk over coffee and dessert. These were limited or occasional offerings in 2022, so ask the restaurant about current availability before ordering.
