When I work in Paradise I hit the one south of Taco Bell near the NorthWest corner of Clark and Pearson I think in the King's Tavern Parking lot - love them burritos. Other than that I don't usually visit them. I probably should more- especially now that it is getting cooler.

yeah he's a good one chris. i go there all the time.
whatever you do AVOID the one in magalia just past the shell station. i dont know if he's still there though because his tacos and burritos were foul. it was some nasty crap. taco seasoning and liquid smoke. ugggh i still shudder to this day. 3 bites was all i could choke down. |

My favorites would have to be the Tacos El pinolero trucks here in chico, there's a couple of them one's in the chico collision center parking lot and the other is in the parking lot on esplanade across from where the albatross was. They have the best steak there, as for chico I love the one on the corner of esplanade and shasta. It's a more permanant trailer type one.
I do enjoy the one inside dukes, they're pretty good as well. I actually just had taco truck today for lunch! It's cheap and good! |

I must admit this brought my attention to finally visit the one nearby my house. I think the guys who run it live only a two houses away from me too. Small world. It was soo good. I'm still full. NW corner of Shasta and Esplanade in Chico.

There used to be a truck out on East Avenue, and so one day we took one of our friends there, because he said he would eat their cowbrain burrito if we bought it for them. We got there and they had stopped serving cow brains for whatever reason. It was really dissapointing.

Yeah that one on NW corner of shasta has the best chicken quesadillas!! I love those!
I actually have a running tab at the one across from where albatross used to be, the guy that owns it is one of the funniest people I've met. Yeah I've actually eaten a tongue taco before and it wasn't all that bad. I got it on accident and enjoyed it until I found out what it was. I wouldn't order it again even if it tasted pretty good. |

Yep! right by the tack store. I don't like their asada as much as the other one I go to but their chicken, and mainly the quesadillas are to die for! I don't think you'll be disappointed but to each his own.

I'm not a cilantro fan either. I grew up without spices and simple foods... slowly I'm adapting but cilantro is just way too much for me at this point in my life.

I used to not like cilantro but now I love it! I always order with cilatro although not extra as the one time I did that it was a huge cilantro burrito.... I can't wait to go down to mexico next year and eat the truly authentic tacos there. They're not too far off from the ones here they're just a lot cheaper and have a little bit better flavor

Naaaa! We go down with the locals and they know where the clean ones are. I don't think any of us have gotten sick from it yet the last 5 years of going 3 or 4 times over the course of the week....
You're right though, you have to be kinda careful with some of them

Went back to that taco truck of Shasta & Esplanade for lunch. Whew. So good.
That's like enough of a meal to keep you full for more than a meal. I think I'll only have a snack for dinner. Ughh Not bad for $5.

I'm asking for a skimmer for christmas
I doubt I'll get one but you never know... Probably a gift card as anyone that would buy me one would be too clueless to know which to buy and would be too worried about messing up. No taco truck for me either today... Went to the chico meat locker though! They have the best tri-tip sandwiches on fridays.... I can't reccomend it more! |

Shhh... If I recall you have to phone in your request for a Friday tri-tip sandwich early cause they always sell out. One of the best kept secrets in Chico. Oh well.

HA! No I actually never order over the phone for it. I get there right around noon before the mechanics get there with their phone orders and luckily they still have it. I've seen them fulfill orders through 1:00 before so I'm guessing they must just be making more..... I'm sad when I miss tri-tip Friday
