El Paisa Taco Truck

"A $2.50 meal: two tacos filled with succulent, crisp-edged pork carnitas and garnished with radishes, peppers, tomatoes, and Abel Lopez's luxurious coral-pink salsa."
Michael Stern






"At the far left of the photo you can see some of the dining accommodations at El Paisa: a concrete curb."

"Tidier than a taco in soft corn tortillas, the quesadilla is a sandwich inside a broad flour tortilla. The melty cheese helps keep all the ingredients together."
Michael Stern



"Throughout the country, but especially in the West and Southwest, the proliferation of taco trucks with really excellent, cheap food is good evidence that Roadfood is thriving."
