Description

There are many taco trucks around the city, but for South Enders there is only one taco bus: Tacos El Asadero. Yes, it has a tattered metal exterior, but unlike many taco trucks, you can actually walk inside, see the kitchen, and eat while sitting on stools that come out of a '50s diner. Over on one side, by the kitchen, there are trays loaded with radishes, limes, and spicy carrots and peppers. Then there are the main courses. El Asadero's tongue and al pastor (spicy pork) tacos are unbeatable. Four-inch-round tortillas topped with salsa, onions, and cilantro, they produce a contained explosion of flavor. Get over your ridiculous "roach coach" fears and top off your order with a ceviche taco, which positively sparkles with lime juice and herbs.
