Can’t wait to try his tacos. Simplicity at its finest!
Te quiero taquero.
Wait 2 hours? No thanks I'm pretty sure there's plenty of good taco spots around I'll only wait 2 hours only if I have no other place to go nearby..
$5 a taco is insane! $20 for 4 tacos?!?!?
"there is no secret ingredient, its just you"
Michelin went woke. Ridiculous.
michelin guide is such a sham.
I know for sure that there are atleast 20 other taco stands just as good that the guide completely brushed over
not even that, the clear bias they have over certain cuisines as to them taking this long to finally recognize mexican cuisine makes it clear.
Blame it on México.
Ahueso
$5 a Taco?
This is absolute bs.
This was debunked by a foodie guy just another tgrow away award same with Lucha Libre in San Diego
