people who have grown up in taco truck country don't realize how good they have it. fantastic and lovingly prepared food delivered to your neighborhood at all hours of the day. while i've been scarfing tacos as rapidly as possible since arriving in california a few years ago, i just recently discovered the torta. this mexican sandwich was served from a truck parked at this laundromat the other night, so i decided to take the plunge. the following picture looks pretty messy, but it sure tasted great!
next up on my list of southern california cuisine is following petrea's lead in tracking down a tostiloco.
