The big truck behind Big Truck Tacos has already been out on a few test runs, so now it’s time to open the doors to its headquarters. Big Truck Tacos, 530 NW 23, is open this morning for breakfast, lunch and early dinner.

Tacos will be served on Serapio’s tortillas with fillings like lengua, buffalo piccadill, pork chile verde, coffee-rubbed skirt steak, house-made chorizo, tilapia with jicama slaw, and vegetarian bean. Other than tacos, they will offer gorditas, tortas, burritos, huevos rancheros, migas, tortas and quesadillas.

Serving fresh homemade salsas, the home base will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. with the truck venturing out evenings. You can follow the truck’s route via Twitter (BigTruckTacos) and facebook (search Big Truck Tacos).

I saw a story on the original "Twitter Taco Truck" in LA. They had people lined up for a couple of blocks waiting for Korean BBQ gourmet tacos. I wonder if the flash mob crowd is still following them now?

the taco trucks are all over LA.

I will admit I have eaten at one, once.
The grub wasn't bad, and it was hella cheap
------------------------------------
Of course that's because they don't pay taxes and the overhead alot of brick and mortar places pay.

To me they are a scrounge of LA, but I will admit it was a tasty cheap taco.

I originally saw the story on the Current Network. Looked like it was good fresh food, but with a ton of Korean stuff mixed in.
