Bagels, omelettes and home fries seem to be standard breakfast items, but more Philly restaurants are adding breakfast tacos to their menus. We’re revisiting a conversation with host Trenae Nuri and Jenn Ladd, food reporter at the Inquirer, about what breakfast tacos are, why they deserve the hype they’ve been getting, and some of the best breakfast taco spots in Philly.
