The Lucky Taco

Over the past few years, we've spent more time in California researching taco trucks and the general food truck scene. After which we embarked on a taco and food course in Mexico City. Lesley Tellez and Ruth Alegria from Mexico Soul and Essence shared their cooking secrets with us and took us to all their favourite taco joints. We ate many. The most unusual being ‘machitos' (sheep scrotum). Not sure whether NZ is ready for that, but perhaps we'll cook some up at the wild food festival!

It's been an incredible journey. We've used our friends as taco guinea pigs, and have had an over whelming amount of support and encouragement along the way. The demand for Lucky became so great (including events, festivals and weddings), we re-mortgaged our house and converted our garage into a fully functioning commercial kitchen, fondly referred to as; The Lucky Taco HQ. If you're ever ‘in tha hood' and can smell wonderful spicy aromas…pop in and say hola.
