YELP didn't show many taco options in Hammond. Fortunately the Apple Maps listed this spot off W. Thomas street so popped up here and ordered some tacos and an order of papusas. Don't be fooled by the surroundings as it may look like a sketchy location but the truck is legitimate with mexican street eats.
There's several proteins here; I went with the carnitas, lengua, and carne asada. The carnitas is probably the best with the fatty flavor of the pork. The lengua and carne asada were dry although seasoned alright. Corn tortillas are ok, a bit flabby when you pick them up. I always thought they'd heat them on the grill but they didn't do it for these. The Papusas are messy and greasy but have a decent flavor to them.
Price-wise, inflation has caused items to go up. Maybe it's a Louisiana thing as prices are lower in Texas. They have plenty of porteins to choose from including barbacoa, pezcado (fish), tripa, camaron, and pastor. Nachos, Gorditas, Tostadas, Quesadillas, Sopes, and Huaraches are other eats available for order here too.
If you're in Hammond, check this place out. I don't know if there's other taco trucks here but this one is now on the map. read more
