And I had carnitas for lunch at a taco dive in Redwood City. Do I get a niener nierner here?
depends on which one it was, of course. (related: dude, burrito real in mountain view closed! you turn your back for a minute, and - )
Rockaway Taco, I salute thee. Come to think of it, I salute your apartment as well, L.
genius post. every time someone suggests mexican when i'm in ny, i just roll my eyes. must try a few of these though. ;)
don't get me wrong, C - they all have an east coast issue or two (except perhaps taco chulo, which is very nearly perfect). that said, they are all more than serviceable if your taco tank is on empty and you'd rather be kicked in the face than walk into a chipotle.
A, you are to be commended for introducing me to beach tacos, particularly as they were shark-drawing-adjacent.
all: note that there is no connection between a dirty dozen about mexican food and the fact that i split my jeggings yesterday. god, i can't believe that phrase applies to me.
i should like to eat mexican with you in the city.
i will take one of each right now please.
Will file this away, in case we are in NY for long enough to require a taco fix. Normally I just abstain until back at home, but extended periods of time are tough.
bowie! booooowwwwwiiiieeee!
