Venice Blvd. & Centinela

Had I not just taken a bombilla-load of piping hot yerba mate to the face, once again scorching the skin from my tongue, I might have discerned a lot more flavor coming from Tatiana's taco truck. Even without the luxury of tastebuds, the shrimp tacos I got were great. I usually rock La Playita on Lincoln for my Venice shrimp tacos, but I could convert to this Aztec-inked lil' beauty real quick. The shrimp tacos took a minute, but came into my hands extra-warm, providing great comfort to my frail little body. The shrimp were really plump and super fresh, exploding with a juicy crunch on every bite, with a top coating of black pepper that adds nicely to the mix. The lettuce too was good n' crunchy, tomatoes and limon extremely fresh, maybe a little onion could have sealed the deal, but no complaints here, these suckers are filled with shrimp and are very good!

Ragusano is disappointed that the L.A.

This is how people usually find out about something like this,” she added. “It's ironic because it happened to them.”
