Real Barbacoa Tacos

Mija, I think we can all agree it’s felt like a L O N G week. So, to have the privilege of sitting at a table today with my family enjoying a Mexican Meal made me feel extremely grateful.

Today, we ventured out to a Taco Spot called LALO’S and I ate R E A L Barbacoa Tacos. Never in my life have I ever had R E A L Barbacoa Tacos. Honestly, the ones I’ve had in the past weren’t good so I just don’t typically order Barbacoa anymore. Growing up at the Top of Texas as a mixed kid..well Mija, I think that was something that just slipped through the cracks in my home. 😂 If it wasn’t Menudo, Sopa De Albondigas or Breakfast Burritos then it was straight up American food on my dinner table. LOL So they brought out three types of meat Lamb Barbacoa, Pancita and Pancita Marinated. Then I was told to grab the grab the fresh corn tortillas to pick up the meat. I M E A N, talk about a fish out of water/feeling like that 25% of my other culture. 😂 Goodness, I felt like a stranger to my other side. It was definitely an experience though. The condiments were white onions and cilantro and a side of purple onions and they were juicy and spicy! So then the C O N S U M E came out and it’s like a Broth for those of you who are like what is she even talking about right now. Then we dipped the tacos in the Consume and I was told to eat it before it gets cold to get the best taste. Listen, Mija this place is a must try! Add it to your Bucketlist because the tacos did not disappoint. I added the address in the blog post too.

Let’s talk about the drinks! We had FRESH Melon Juice and Soursop. Listen, Mija..what is even that?! I had to do a quick google while I was drinking that juice like a it was a Dr. Pepper. It was absolutely delicious! You know what I love about getting juice at a Mexican Restaurant it’s REAL. I also ordered a cafecito. Since, moving back to the States after living overseas I’m a High Maintenance Coffee Girly. But this cup of coffee was ⛽️ GAS! It came out black with a side of goats milk. So I took a sip of the coffee and it was so sweet and tasted like cinnamon. Mija, I’ll be honest I was almost laid out in the floor with that cup of coffee. You know what I liked too it was just a good cup of coffee. None of the extra fancy stuff either. Just a damn good cup of coffee!

My order:
