You place your order, receive a buzzer, and are welcome to wait in your air conditioned car. My go to is the gringa with pork. It's basically an open face quesadilla loaded with cheesy pull cheese, pork, white onions, and cilantro. They also offer it as a mini if you just want to try it. My bf loves their pork tacos dressed classic a la calle. I also recommend the loaded papas (unpictured). There is a cash discount so plan ahead. This is a staple right here for me.

I'm not sure if it was one of the salsas or one of the tacos but something is very spicy, nose running spicy! My mouth is burning as I type this. The Al pastor taco was by far my favorite, it was sooooo good. The chicken/pollo was my least favorite, it wasn't very flavorful.

The carne asada taco was okay, too many onions for me, but still quite tasty. Some would probably be intimidated to eat here because it is a run-down food truck located next to a gas station near the Home Depot of Coursey & Cedarcrest. The service was friendly and fast. Eating there is not really recommended because there are just folding chairs, no tables. I would say the food was pretty authentic and I plan on going back, especially for those yummy pupusas. This might not be your first choice, but at least make it a choice; step out of your box and try something new!

I'm giving it 5 starts for the quality of the food only. I've traveled all over Mexico and these…read moreare the best carne asada and grilled chicken tacos I have ever had. Everyone has heard about my deep rooted love and obsession for tacos and food stands, so I wanted everyone else in Baton Rouge to find out about this gem of a shady but delicious food truck! The meat is charred crispy to perfection, without being dry. The doubled-up HANDMADE a corn tortillas are definitely the best tortillas I have ever tasted. (Hmm, wonder if I can get a whole pack to go?!) The pupusas are delicious too, and come topped with a pickled cabbage. My friend did order the pork tacos, thinking it was carnitas, but it was actually chicharrones (pork rind) and we didn't like that one so much. I TOLD her to let me order for her in Spanish, but she insisted on the pork before I had the chance to people rly ask WHAT type of pork...... And yes, it's best to order in Spanish. Just say "taco de carne asada" (beef steak) and "taco de pollo" (chicken) and how may and you should be set. I usually order 3. They are small but very filling. I could literally eat these everyday. There are 2-3 chairs to sit out at while waiting for your order, and the wait time is 4-8mins or so depending on how much you order but it's so worth it. They even give salsa to go. Ladies, please wear your wedding rings (or a fake one while you order) because there will most likely have a plethora of men ordering authentic Mexican food, waiting to propose to any unsuspecting lady who just wants to get her foodporn on and immediately dash to the comfort of their own home to indulge in these tasty treats. It is parked at the gas station near the Home Depot on Cedarcrest & Coursey. Coming from bluebonnet (with the CCs coffee house on your left) you will cross over working onto Coursey, and it's the second gas station on the right. If you're in the Home Depot parking lot, the gas station is directly in front of the store.

Not to mention the pupusas of chicharrón did not taste like chicharrón, only cheese. Not satisfied.

Old Style Hot Tamales 2004 1/2 Claire Avenue…read moreGretna, La 70053-4448 I had been asking around inquiring about who was one of the best tamale makers in greater New Orleans and statewide. Well 4 out of every 5 said, Old Style Hot Tamales. I called them because I was needing quite a few for an event coming up in a few days. I spoke with the youngest of the children of the Buwes, who built this dynasty. I told Don Buwe about the feed back from my inquiry and told him what I needed, and when I would need them. Don Buwe said let me check, I'll call you back with availability, Hence , I placed my order. It arrived a couple Of days later as I requested, I tasted the product and I can honestly say, " these are the best Hot Tamales I have ever eaten". They were the right size, the right amount of spice, the right amount of meat, and the flour/Mesa was unlike any I've ever tasted. There was a buttery taste, and the gravy was a beautiful brownish red, nat'ually Nu' Awlins y'all, just the right weight for the tamales to soak in, uh huh. Oooh mah gawd,! I think my mouth turned into a tamale conveyor belt! The matriarch and the late patriarch of this company needs to be given the congressional Metal for their Hot Tamale Product. Every event I have in the future will be an Old Style Hot Tamale theme. Dat's right, it's my pawdy and I'll serve Old Style Hot Tamales if I want to. The Buwes have several stands, the website has the locations. You can call and place orders for pick up fresh out of the pot. The Buwes tamales under the same name Old Style Hot Tamales are sold in our local markets. All calls are turned in ample time. If you have a big order call and see if you can be accommodated. This is a family that goes back many decades with a nat'ually nu'awlins product. I met Don and his mother and I was totally delighted. They feel the heartbeat of Louisiana in every way. They have made big changes having the tamale stands accessible for every one since Covid-19. Let's keep these Old Style Hot Tamales thriving, they are uhmmmmm uhmmmmmm good y'all. This is "MO" checking out, be mindful, prayerful and tamale y'all! I will follow up with pics this week.

We are on a road trip and decided we needed something cold and delightful. Hubs and I got our usual Tigers Blood while the kids got Strawberry and the other kid got Mango. The owner was working today and she made the best snow cones. The ice was perfectly packed and the syrupy goodness was applied in perfect proportion. She was friendly and talkative as she prepared our snow cones. We would definitely go back. Now, as you are pulling in it looks as though the shop is inside the mall - nope! It is outside, across from Main Event with a convenient extra wide driveway. The shops were not busy, so hubs stayed parked there with the doggo while kids and I ran in. What a perfect location and a perfect experience!
