Expectations for TACOS el Paisa



TACOS

When Mexicans cross the borderline, they're not only bringing their hopes for a better life in the U.S., they are also dragging their cultures and traditions-aspects of their lives they will never give up. Tacos come with the Mexican culture, one cannot exist without the other. 


Tacos El Paisa


Tacos El Paisa is a Mexican food truck that sits on Walnut Street across from the Burger King. From 10:30 in the morning 'til 8:00 in the late evening, the truck draws in college students from around the area with an amazing aroma. 

Being an LA native and all, I hold high expectations over every order prepared. With small tortillas dipped in vegetable oil and a variety of meats cooking on the side, I am easily lured in. Be it Carne Asada, Al Pastor, Lengua, or Chorizo; the menu resonates with Mexican culture. Every taco resonates with Mexico's call for a bite, and only a good taquero can deliver an appreciated dish that won't receive the degrading insult of a simple wail, "Ah!". 


Online Reviews

Reading reviews on google maps looking for a place to start eating the greatest of Mexican dishes, I hope this is a good place to start my journey for eating in Chico-it has 4.5 stars on google maps after 32 reviews. Some say it's the "Best authentic Mexican food courteous service" after rating it 5 stars themselves. Hopefully, they're as great as residents claim, the $5 I use to order 4 tacos won't be a waste when I bite into them tomorrow night after my Religious Studies course at 5 p.m.

Tacos Tonaya #2, BEST Mexican Food in Chico?

Image
Tacos Tonaya #2  Tacos Tonaya #2 sits on the corner of walnut and West 3rd, an area heavily populated by multiple student housing areas and attracts many students in during their late nights. Late Saturday night? Tacos Tonaya's open until 2 a.m. on Sunday early morning. Dependable for almost any time of day, well except on Sundays-off to church to praise the Lord and Savior and pray for good fortune. Walking home, I myself pass it every now and then, and it is heavily impacted by the student population arriving for the Mexican food. Always there for some good tacos. Menu As a Mexican restaurant, Tacos Tonaya #2 has quite the reputation to uphold for those further down in southern California. They have a variety to please the customers-Mexican specialty dishes, tacos, burritos, fries with the infamous carne asada . There is a lot to choose from. Rumors say that their California burrito is their most attractive dish.  Mexican Food Competition? Sure there might just b

IS IT ACTUALLY GOOD?  It's a good question to ask yourself before you step foot in any restaurant. You don't want to embarrass the cooking staff, or in this case, the barista. I take a glance inside and there's a room full of college students, a few hipsters, and even a few old people of Chico. It's a hot spot.  The Naked Lounge  has obviously lured in the student populace of Chico, possibly on a level even as great as Starbucks. From the outside, The Naked Lounge looks authentic and youthful, Starbucks looks so typical. MENU Not only coffee!! But There is also tea, espresso, beer, and food on the  menu . They're even smart in how they order their menu across the board with it separating the usually order drinks for newcomers and the unusual for those feeling extra risky. YELP'S REVIEW  Yelp  always has something to say, it's customer reviews on The Naked Lounge was a 4-star coffee shop with 685 reviews. Some like Isabella, from out of town,

TACOS! TaCOs! TACOS!  tACoS! F I E S T A T A C O S l o C A t I o N streetview from google maps  →  933 Nord Ave.              Chico, CA 95926 It sits on Nord Ave, right in front of Star Liquor just before Safeway. I see it. My friend sees it. Everyone sees it. It's known for its tacos, but tacos are not the only thing on the menu. Of course, Fiesta Tacos is widely known and has acquired the recognition of all Chico. But is it really good? Like its perfect competitive spot? Is it really worth it having to walk a mile for some tacos? M E N U MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!  eVeRRYbODY WAntS A tACO! But people forget that there are: tacos, tostadas, quesadillas, nachos, burrito, tortas. Of course, there are also options to the type of meat you wish for, be it: Carne Asada or al Pastor.  My Review Tired of walking up Nord Ave. I always glance at this particular taco truck, despite the fact that I had already past three other taco trucks. I glanced at it and it wasn't t
