Three Reasons to Love Taco Trucks

Three Reasons to Love Taco Trucks

Quality without the Hassle- You want to find the best taco in town then look no further then your backyard. Just listen for the roar of an engine and the scent of carne asada cooking on the grill. In most towns you can find a truck on nearly every corner, especially in parts of L.A and Seattle. One of my best taco experiences came on a late July night after a concert in L.A. My friend and I had just finished watching one of our favorite reggae bands perform and I guess you can say that hunger was in the air so my stomach pointed me in the direction of tacos, it just didn't know where. So driving down the 210 freeway past midnight in Pasadena, California my friend remembers that he's heard of this taco truck that open late and has this incredible chipotle cilantro sauce but all I could hear from him was tacos. As we pull up the crowd is big but once it was my turn to order the gentlemen reaction to how fast I ordered was priceless. I was a man on a mission and Tacos El Pollo was going to help me complete it. Needless to say these tacos lived up to hype and the carnitas carried the flavor of a properly cooked carnitas you usually find at Mexican restaurant.

Convenience at Every Corner 


Many workers have limited time to travel for food during the midday, and so quickly go through all restaurant venues near their workplace. Food trucks offer variety and noveltyare fast, and are often healthier and cheaper than most other alternatives. Also often several of them are located together so coworkers can each get a meal they like without having to part to go to different venues. Change is the only constant thing available in the market. Same theory is valid onto street food vending, World has moved from un hygienic street food to convenient, affordable and yummy food but the medium to serve has changed dramatically. Food Truck is engulfing its roots deep in the system because of its mobile and cheaper operations. This would not be different if I say food truck is the present and is going to change the course of food selling in coming times.

There's just something about huddling around a taco truck with your friends, slightly hunching over, and indulging in street tacos assorted over paper plates. Some tacos trucks include a giant speaker placed in the corner that plays Latino music for the purpose of making you grove the delicious aroma of Al Pastor tacos. The people working the truck deliver such excellent customer service they make it seem like its your own friends bringing you this taco out of body experience. Since the whole restaurant charade is non relevant in the world of food trucks the culinary minds behind the scene carry a relaxed demeanor it causes the food truck patrons to mirror their energy and really take in the whole food atmosphere around. Above all, the best reason the taco trucks are so popular is because it brings people together. It gets you out of the house, without having to walk far, while getting some fresh air for the sole purpose of meeting up with friends and enjoying some neighborhood tacos. At the same time, those that don't have friends could meet new people that can plan future taco gathering with. Love is always in the taco-sphere when it comes to food trucks.

Learn to Taco About It

  Learn To Create Simple Delicious Tacos One Taco Night - It began as a normal night in Mareno Valley California, with nine of us arguing about what we should have for dinner.

A pack of yellow organic tortillas, staring at me right in the face. I just smiled back, as ideas began turning in my head.

Let's Taco It Down South

Tacos From the South -- They say that the closer you get to the boarder down south the better the food tastes. I would agree, the ingredients carry more of a natural aspect about it that hasn't been manipulated. Most of the peppers as picked right from the backyard and put straight into the salsas. This will carry into the topic I want to discuss today which is the Mania of tacos from Mexico. The Rule of Three - Just like the mariachi bands that usually come in three, when you order tacos in mexico you usually order them in 3's. For starters it makes the taqueros job easier and secondly you fight the temptation of eating more then you have to. Needless to say if you look at the taco belly's of many Mexicans its safe to say that 3 rule doesn't work. The primary reason that tacos in Mexico traditionally come in threes is because of the size of tacos. Unlike tacos you see in the states, Mexican streets tacos come in smaller size tortillas so it makes it tough t
