Forget superstition – at Del 74, it's good things, not bad things, that come in threes. Specifically in the form of tacos, margaritas and beer. The folk at new east London hangout set out to do out to do these three things, and do them damned well – and after visiting last week, we can report that yes, they've totally nailed it. The steak tacos are rich, tender and packed with flavour, the fish variation teams subtly spicy tilapia with creamy coleslaw – and the unexpected hero is the veggie tinga taco, which packs a smoky chipotle chilli punch and is topped with crunchy sweet potato. Throw in well-made margaritas with traditional mescal, deeeelicious home-made guacamole, a buzzy atmosphere and staff who are as friendly as they are hip, it's proof that less can be way, way more.
