new mexican joint in taipei… and its not bad!
they have the basics: tacos- hard and soft, nachos, burritos, quesadillas, burrito bowls.
carne asada, carnitas, chicken, fish.. there’s also a tofu option.. which i will probably never try.
verdict:
the salsas: pico de gallo was pretty authentic. the red and green salsas were too watery for me, so i didn’t use them. their corn salsa is really good.
guacamole ordered as a side: disappointing, it was creamy, like it was mixed with sour cream, and was squeezed out of a bottle.. it was more of a “avocado sour cream sauce.” not what i was expecting to dip my tortilla chips in.
carne asada soft tacos. i added pico de gallo, lime, and cholula (yes they have it!) before i ate it. :)
fish tacos. i was impressed. yum.
* note: they ran out when i went back to the counter to order more to go..
carnitas nachos. missing beans. but i didn’t mind since i usually opt to remove beans from my nachos.. but for purists, i thought i’d note.
so happy that macho tacos is open. now i know where to go to get my carne asada fix.
