The tacos and side boast bold flavors. The original Dr. Pepper-braised pork with pickled cabbage, jalapeno and radish was amazing, but my favorite was the seasonal crispy oyster mushroom. This taco was filled with crisp tempura-battered fried oyster mushrooms from Mushroom Mike with just the right amount of batter and topped with buttermilk salad, roasted pumpkin seeds, radish and Cojita cheese. My other favorite was a creation of Taco Moto’s new truck manager Ben, who, Derrik says, ““brings new ideas to the truck and fresh enthusiasm.” And he was right. The Plantaco with a fried ripe plantain, braised pork (they also do a vegetarian version), aioli, radish and sliced roasted almonds was a delicious.
