In my relentless quest for the perfect Mexican food, I stumbled upon Federico's. First impression, I encounter a locked door with a women inside that glimpses over at me trying to get in and looking the other way while wiping down a table. I guess that was my cue to try the drive-thru.
A near-indecipherable wave of static noise blew towards my eardrums once I drove through. Keeping it simple, I ordered the two carne asada tacos with beans and rice. Once I got home, the first thing I noticed was the generous portions of the taco. To the contrary, the tacos only had one unheated tortilla each. I already knew this massive filling was not going to be supported properly by one flimsy corn tortilla. This held true, the structural integrity of the taco collapsed beyond despair within one bite attempt. Secondly, the taste was profoundly underwhelming. The beans and rice were also on the same page, lacklustering in the flavor depot and so goes the salsa and carrots.
I can't help but to think every cylinder of this establishment was off-beat and beyond repair. Though my regular visits to Ramiro's and Poliberto's are consistently memorable, my search goes on for that perfect taco.
