Context
Cabeza is meat from a steamed or braised beef head, prized for its rich, soft texture and traditionally sold at street stands across Mexico. Calistoga, at the northern tip of the Napa Valley, has a small number of taco businesses that serve local residents, vineyard workers and visitors to its spas. Guides such as Visit Napa Valley's taco trail and Wine Spectator's taco tour have pointed wine-country visitors toward the county's taquerías and trucks, which also serve the people who live and work in the valley. Sources consulted do not give a street number, founding date or owners.
