Houston artist and French-born gourmet Bernard Brunon was so impressed by the tripe and sweetbreads at Taqueria Tacambaro, the taco truck behind Caninos Produce on Airline, that he went back a few days later. He called me in horror from the parking lot:
The taco truck had disappeared!
I told him that taco trucks routinely return to home base to get cleaned and restocked. But I was a little nervous since those tripe and sweetbreads tacos are the subject of this week’s review.
So I stopped by earlier this week just to make sure that the Taqueria Tacambaro truck (it’s actually a trailer once the pickup truck leaves) had reappeared. It had.
And now we can all slurp down those lovely tripe tacos again. — Robb Walsh
