Forget soup. Tacos is where it's at.

Recently my dad and I had a hankering for some tacos, as we hadn't had them in a good while. Not your normal taco, though. We like to sometimes go to the nice place in Danbury, Panchos Tacos. Instead of getting two tacos filled with beef or chicken in crunchy or soft tacos shells, you get a much better variety. You can get lamb, steak, tripe, pork, fish, ground sausage and a few others in a double tortilla not much bigger than the circle you can make touching you thumbs and middle fingers (one tortilla just isn't enough to contain all that flavor). Though they are smaller than your average taco, you can order as many as you want in as many combinations as you can think of at 1.75 each. You leave with both your stomach and your wallet full. This time I believe I went for the marinated lamb, ground pork sausage, beef head and beef tongue tacos. The lamb was very well seasoned as was the ground pork, but I’m a sucker for that beef head. Don’t be put off by what it sounds like; both the beef head and beef tongue have this wonderful sweet, fatty, beefy taste that you just can’t get anywhere else on the cow. It’s like deboned ribs, but better. You can’t go wrong with it. On top of the meat, tastefully simple, is just some onion and cilantro with a sliced lime on the side. All together it gives you this rustic, uniquely Mexican taste that anything else added would only detract from. No lettuce and cheese here. I love it because you can go back time and time again and never get bored with what you get. Mix and match or stick with your favorite for a cheap, satisfying meal out.
