| - November Challenge - 26/30
Whenever I go to Taco Time and I read their tray liners about how they did all their food research in the heart of Mexico and by hiking in the rainforest, all I can think is, "gurl, bye."
Still, every now and then I get a craving for my favorite thing in the world: a burrito. And sometimes I'm too lazy to make one at home, or I'm at the mall so I can't head over to my go-to: Mucho Burrito.
Taco Time fills this void with their pseudo-Mexi-can't food. When I look at it as simple fast food rather than authentic, I start to see it for what it is: a delicious wrap with fresh veggies, rice and refried beans. A quick filler-upper when I'm marathon shopping. The staff is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and have no problem veganizing the burritos and tacos for me (the flour and corn tortillas are vegan, according to the website). I also like their sweet potato "mexi fries" that I'm sure were imported straight from the heart of Oaxaca. I see Taco Time as Taco Bell with a power-up. And while their hottest hot sauce wouldn't make me sweat, they're still pretty decent to dip the tater tots... er... mexi fries in.
Bonus star because vegan options that aren't a green salad with no dressing for $14, are pretty tricky to come by at the food court. Hi-five, Taco Time :).
