A good kebab place, but has absolutely nothing to do with Tacos…read more
Following my arrival to Lausanne, their name "Giga Tacos" (heh) as well as the tagline "Original French Tacos" (WTF) did intrigue me. So, as a grand amateur of Mexican food, I decided to check by myself what the fuss was all about and to go there and order.
First of all, the "meat+veggies+sauce" with optional fries didn't presage anything Mexican. No hot sauces; no carna assada or avocados. However there was plenty of usual components of kebab - onions, kebab meat, choice of sauces that would usually go one kebabs, etc... And to top everything, it doesn't even come in a taco, but instead wrapped in a burrito tortilla; with all being pressed in a panini machine.
Don't take me wrong, the final package is delicious and can be made well-balanced with an abundance of vegetable; plus all comes for the very reasonable price of 8 CHF, drink included. However it has absolutely nothing to do with tacos or Mexican food for the matter.
