The Great Taco Hunt is One Year Old

8:10 AM PDT on August 21, 2006

And what a year it's been: "76 taco establishments on the board, almost 200 tacos consumed, and only one upset stomach".

The great Bandini, LA's king of Taco blogging, and one of the city's (if not the world's) foremost practicioners of the Taco Lifestyle, brings us joy with each new report. Don't miss his latest taco reviews and news and start getting excited for a new Taco's Top Ten Tacos which we'll publish later this week. Also from Bandini comes news that Santa Ana's taco trucks have won a lawsuit, which bodes well for opposition to Los Angeles' similar anti-taco provision.
