TACO TASTING ON A TUESDAY

When we were walking around Olvera Street, we noticed there were lots of places to get food. Since we love to eat, we decided to try one taco at each of the food stands. We thought it was interesting that one of the stands didn’t sell tacos. Others served traditional street tacos, while some had their own style of tacos. Find out what we thought about the different stands:

 

Name: Rodolfo’s

Price for 2 tacos: $5.45

Describe in 3 phrases: spicy salsa*, tender meat, fresh tortilla

Ingredients: One tortilla, carne asada, onions, cilantro and salsa

*We loved the salsa at Rodolfo’s!
