what's up guys we just got our tacos what'd you get man I got carne asada I got one uh beef head and one lengua yeah let's dig in man I'm gonna do the lengua first so my thoughts on the Taco uh tortilla is nice and crispy uh onions and cilantro are really fresh I didn't put any salsa on this one I like to try it before I add the salsa but the the lengua it's perfectly seasoned it's Savory it's it's not gamey super tender it's absolutely delicious man um this lengua I'll give it a 7.8 out of 10. so how's yours man oh man the meat the way it's cooked the the onions it's it's perfect I get I'm gonna give it a strong eight really good eight that's not bad man uh let me let me dive into my uh Cabeza I could taste like hints of uh some not not salt or pepper something a little bit more complex than Salt and Pepper in the seasoning I want to say it's like a rosemary or oregano I can taste it coming through the beef is super fatty I mean it's about the fattiest beef I I probably have ever tasted but I'll give this taco a uh 7.9 out of 10. really good wrapping up here at Guadalajara legit tacos if you guys are in the area come through and check them out on to the next bro yep [Music] what's up y'all we're at our second stop for the day Tacos El Gordo on 42nd and international this place is an institution you come here during during the day or at 2 A.M there's going to be people here ordering up the the most legit tacos right you're hearing the thick of it man this is like taco Central right here on International on the Avenues so we're gonna get some food we'll report back to you guys we just got our tacos I ended up getting Pollo and Carnitas what'd you get I got the Pollo and I got the uh asada yeah man let's dig in I'm gonna try the Carnitas first I'm gonna squeeze of lime on here um wow so the Carnitas seasoned perfectly oh it's tender if it's Savory it's fatty the salsa balances out the fat perfectly tortilla is nice and warm I'll give this Taco a solid 8 out of ten what about you man a nine a nine I love the sauce so you can taste all the spices I'm gonna try the what John tried last uh I'm gonna try the Pollo and he's gonna try his uh I'm gonna try the uh carne asada yeah all right let's dig in wow the chicken is super tender it's moist it's Savory just the right amount of spice in the chicken the salsa balances out really well the cilantro and onions are Super Fresh I'll give this one I mean I know John gave it a nine I'll give this at 8.7 out of 10. nine for this one carne asada is a nine wrapping up here at Tacos El Gordo awesome tacos if you guys are in the area come check them out you won't be disappointed man and they're open until three in the morning that's another plus too better than any any other food you're going to get around that time and yeah and great food in general man on to the next the last stop you guys are gonna dig this last one too man we're here at our last stop La Parrilla Loca this is on San Leandro Ave and near 98th Ave it's not even really a taco truck per se it's it takes up a whole sidewalk and they have an open-air Grill and uh people making tortillas on site and they're doing Tacos Tijuana style you might ask what's the Tijuana style taco uh you got to have fresh made Tortillas on site and meat grilled over coals and strange enough guacamole which I've never been I didn't know that like that was like a legit thing where you put guacamole and tacos or TJ style I always thought it was something they have at Chevy's you know I've been at Tijuana once and I had a great time there was tacos everywhere and it just brings me back it smells wonderful I can't wait to dive in yeah we're gonna get some food and report back to you guys [Music] thank you [Music] we just got our food we ended up getting both the same thing we got Alpa store and carne asada yeah we'll do the Alpac store first Cheers Cheers [Music] whoo oh my God first of all the tortilla it tastes more like a a corn flatbread it's so Airy and fluffy man I could eat just the tortilla and the guacamole by itself the Alpa store it has like the Char from straight from the grill and you could tell it it hadn't been sitting around it was fresh and direct and it's delicious and the guacamole I didn't think it would complement it that well it just works so so really well uh this Taco is a nine for me like a solid nine what's your thoughts on the alpha store bro oh man this just took it to a whole new level just everything's freshly made the guacamole the spices the yeah it's not heavy at all oh man a solid 10. all right so uh I'll do the review on the carne asada all right here we go I'm mistaken uh we didn't get carne asada on the second Taco we got a pollo chicken the chicken is marinated really well it tastes like adobo the the guacamole balances it really well there's a little bit of spiciness I asked for the mild salsa so I mean it's complementing it really well and the same thing I said about the tortilla it's a game changer a fresh made tortilla oh my goodness uh if you guys have never tried a fresh handmade tortilla you guys are missing out on life uh this this Pollo I give it a uh 8.9 yeah it's a really good taco they are doing a straight proper out here we almost forgot to mention we ended up getting agua Fresca's here uh what'd you get I got the passion fruit passion fruit I got strawberry you guys check this out that's in Focus there you go cheers I feel like I'm in tropical island or something dude I love this drink I love it I'll give the the strawberry I'll give this an eight and a half what about you nine and a half nine and a half yeah I think it's really good flavorful I haven't been drinking like something like this in a while it's great I don't even
