Arturo's Taco Truck

W:   I love getting head. Waiting in line and the anticipation of getting head is unbearable. Sounds wrong and raunchy but I love stepping up and asking for head. Late night is when I like to get head. One of my guiltiest pleasures. Stopped twice and got head both times late at night. Driving around in the dark of the night looking for the street corner where head awaits. And of course it’s a family outing. We all love head. Ah Ha! On the corner of Bellevue Dr and Fair Oaks Ave. The mighty taco truck awaits!

S:  Honestly, before the crazy food truck phase, I've always have a fondness for roach coaches.  Before the decked out in-your-faces colorful hot wells, I am more drawn towards a modded pickup truck with insulated silver diamond-pattern doors with attached griddle or fryer. Generally, you can find these trucks frequenting construction sites. The first roach coach that I tried was actually in Mexico, so to see Arturo's keeping the ghetto fabulous, I was very excited!

W:   As a lover of almost all things Latin, this taco truck exudes authenticity. Well, probably not but if real Mexican food does not taste like this then I will be majorly disappointed. This place is a mobile taco truck that is parked in an empty parking lot next to a rundown building between 6 pm to 3 am. The people watching is one of the best parts of the experience. It’s awesome when you see dumb ass drunk bitches walking around in 8 inch high heels trying to avoid the cracks of the pavement and swaying back and forth waiting in line. On this particular night there were an entourage of velvet orange and blue pumps that paraded up and down the lines. Believe me Latin women are beautiful, curvy and sexy. But these were not. They were busted.

S:  Don't forget about that one chick that slipped.  It was so hard not to stare but she was a good sport about it, rolling on the pavement in her mini skirt.  I have to say especially, just in case you cannot tell by now, the head meat aka cabeza brought me back to Mexico City.  There were a variety of meats from carnitas, tripas, cabeza and you can eat it multiple ways, from burritos, tacos, mulitas to quesadillas. The meats were chunky, perfect for each yumful bite. They were seasoned just right, tender, and with just the right amount of natural juices present. Arturo's has this amazing guacamole salsa that is creamy and tangy that goes beautifully with my cabeza tacos. Cheap great eats!

W:   Our party of 7 ordered roughly 21 tacos and 1 quesadilla. Mostly all cabeza. The meat was luscious and moist stacked on top of crisp tortillas. The brightness of the lime and cilantro and the sharpness of the finely diced onion covered in either the salsa verde or salsa rojo made the night. The head was braised until it melted in your mouth like meat butter.  Really… meat butter. No other way to describe it. There were no remnants of any musky gamey taste. Just nice juicy head. Best of all you get to see ugly sloppy girls fall of truck beds and step into the cracks of the parking lot and get their heels stuck and try struggle to escape in their drunken stupor. Awesome. Dinner and a show.

Has anyone else seen stupid antics at Arturo's? If so, what happened and most importantly what did y'all eat? (thought we'd bring a southern twang since Mexico is south of the US).
