| - I'm open to suggestions. If someone randomly stops me on my tracks to insist on me trying their favourite new joint, I wouldn't hesitate to oblige them. Especially if they're pretty and possibly rich.
In this case it was more rugged and possibly deadly. And when my buddy Harker told me about Jalepenos, I couldn't say no because he was about to rip my arm off.
"ANGELO, You gotta try this wicked Mexican taquiera. 3 Words, Beef Tounge Tacos"
So it sat rattling around in my mind for weeks until I happened to get a chance for a lunch hang with my friend Steph on a friday. We strolled in here and immediately we recalled our best taco experiences and began to contrast the experience here.
First off, they had a sign that said "We do not serve "alcohol" here" followed by a spanish translation.
Next their fast-food-esque service entailed having to order your food in the front. We decided on their tortilla and taco with the option to try as much meats as we wanted. My heart interjected and demanded it's weight in beef tongue, but we also went for chorizo and adobado. On top of things we tried their guacamole, and horchata.
*cracks fingers* allright here we go:
The tortillas and tacos were amazing, they held up their end of the deal and delivered the tasty fillings without any of the dodgy messes involved with poorly formed shells.
The fillings were fresh. I wasn't too picky about which veggies went where but freshness counts and I had no complaints. Their salsa bar was simplified to three sections: Mild, Medium, and RECTUM REQUIEM.
The meat. Oh the glorious meat. The Beef Tounge was so soft and as a boy raised having to eat his weight in offal, this was done WELL. So buttery and meaty. The same could be said for the adobado, but although the chorizo wasn't as standout.
Their Guac is made fresh on order, tasty but I think some people might think it too salty. I often load mine up to adjust the taste and this was just perfect.
Finally their horchata was refreshing and creamy. My friend tried it for the first time and her mind was blown away. My friend had it for the first time and forgot the point she was making mid conversation.
Jalapenos blew my mind. Despite lacking the experience in real Mexican Taquieras, save for the dodgy but deluctable street taco I has in Nuevo Vallarta, this felt like a whole new experience to me worth revisiting and worth the awkward track across the city.
