La Taquiza world cup revisit

I get stopped a lot on the streets by ruffians asking me how could the highest rated taco joint in the GTA be right outside Vaughan Mills, home to grade 9 skanks, pedos in that build-a-bear workshop, and all around douche bags???

I was starting to second guess my bullet proof ratings system, so I went back with my pal Jon. Now Jon’s going into a career of denture making, so I wanted to give him the best taco meal he could ever dream of before he enters a field with the highest suicide rate. Im sensitive that way.

The outside patio was looking mighty tempting with their authentic mexican muskoka chairs, but it was just too windy. Inside, we get a nice look at their new projector screen thats up for watching the world cup. Go in for a 10am game and you can order some mexican breakfast. I need to get on that one morning.

On to zee foodz!
These days I cant get enough of their Totopos, which is their home made tortilla chips and home made guac. The guac has this radioactive green color to it, which is way more fresh than the way I describe it. Trust me, its good, and huge, and is all you need to order before your meal. 5 bucks! Or you can blow 10 on a handful of rubber fried calamari at any other restaurant in the plaza. 

Theres really nothing I ever want to order off the menu here besides their tacos. A mix and match of 3 for around $7.50. The lineup includes chipotle chicken, grilled steak, mushrooms, ground beef, lamb, marinated pork, fried jalapeno, pretty much everything except chorizo for some reason.

Al Pastor always delivers at the top with marinated shredded pork with pineapple chunks. This taco goes well naked, but Im a sucker for their salsa bar, so I topped it with some pico de gallo, and asked for the habanero hookups. They dont leave that junk out in the open. Made my teeth shine after one bite.

Im going to let the photos speak for themselves, but you really cant go wrong with any taco from La Taquiza. Please note that the grilled steak won a special place in my heart that night. Downed it all with tangerine Jaritos and left a thousand peso tip.

Taco Rating: 4.5/5 (still king)
