Tacos al pastor, which translates to shepherd's style tacos, are uniquely Mexican - with Middle Eastern influence.
Lebanese immigrants to Mexico brought with them the tradition of shawarma, lamb rotisseried on a vertical spit and served in pita bread, which Mexicans adapted to pork served in a tortilla.
