Cabeza

My favorite taco in the one in between the beef enchilada and the beef and bean borrito

Best tacos I ever had were at an indoor/outdoor bar in downtown San Diego. I ate there three nights of the 6 that I was in town for business. The Pastor was fantastic. Shrimp were out of this world. I'd order 3 or 4 different tacos every time I went in (and often another one or two after a few margaritas). The last night I was there the waitress insisted I try the octopus. I am not a fan of octopus. At all. She was extremely insistent and offered to pay for it if I didn't like it.

I'm not going to start ordering octopus, but that was one of the single best things I've ever eaten in my life. Epic. I don't know what that sauce was they used, but I'd buy it by the gallon. If it makes octopus taste like that...

As an aside, say what you will about politics, but San Diego is one of the all time great food cities. The only reason I didn't put on 20lbs the week I was there was I walked everywhere.

I love the tacos de lengua, as well as oreja and cueritos

Done right, I don't think there is a better taco than crispy fried tripas.

Had some today amidst all the smoke we're dealing with. Probably one of the best tripas I've had in awhile.

No Cameron? :-(

Tilapia. Make them myself.

Living in Wyoming, I settle

I didn't vote, because I've no idea what those things are. I get Taco Bell with extra meat, lettuce, and tomato (no cheese!). I use 1 packet of Fire sauce on each. Go ahead and flame me, I've got thick skin.

Hey you are good flashguy. I don't know what that stuff is either. Just want some good ground beef well done on a crispy corn tortilla shell with lettuce, tomatoes and some medium taco sauce.

I prefer the crispy shell tacos at Carmen’s Mexican Food, but like Taco Bell tacos too.

My favorite burgers are Shake Shack (and my own smash burgers) but even McDonald’s has some pretty good burgers these days.

The sign of a true food fan; one that can embrace the "high brow" and well as the "low brow" (I like TB and McDonalds as well)

What's your favorite taco

TRD Off Road.

Does a chalupa count? I like that fried puffy shell

For burgers I used to do Burger King, but have migrated to Whataburger. A local chain, Griff's, is pretty good, too. I just have well-done meat, yellow mustard, and lettuce on mine. (I'm a pretty simple fellow.)
