The Taco Trucks of Long Wharf

I'm not sure why there are three or four taco trucks that park along Long Wharf, I mean I can understand one maybe two but there are at least three sometimes four parked and ready to serve you up a taco or two. Along with the taco trucks there is always a rose truck and the Flag Man selling flags. You'll see them another time. Santa Apolonia Taco Truck
Ixtapa Taco Truck
And, ironically I think this one is Ixtapa also. A taco by any other name would smell just as good. During the summer I'll go do a taste test for you all. For now let's blow this taco stand!!*
Let's blow this taco stand means let's get out of here - no violence! The phrase is also heard as let's blow this Popsicle stand or pop stand. Yalla! Let's blow this taco stand.

  2. To Ciel: A Brink's armored car would be appropriate if they were carrying chocolate instead of tacos.

    Suzanne, thanks for the language lesson. I need to keep up on American.
