As luck would have it, just as I arrived to Latin Burger and Taco Truck's location they were in the process of moving to another location. So of course, I followed them. I literally followed right behind them while I read their tweets as to their next location. They arrive and I miss where they park (because I was paying attention to Twitter) so I need to round the block. I take over the menu and decide, a Latin Macho Burger = Yes, a Pulled Pork Taco = Yes, Fries = Yes. It's really not as much as it sounds and the prices are very reasonable. Each taco is $2.50 or 3 for $6.95.

There are also some awesome, made from scratch sauces like the red pepper mayo and my favorite, the gauchup. I thought it was ketchup and gaucamole (that sounds plain nasty) but I was wrong. It's guayaba (guava for the gringos) with ketchup. It's a sweet sauce and at first I didn't know what to make of it. I dipped a fry into and I was trying to grasp the flavor. With each successive dip, I became more and more enamored with the flavor. It's really good.The Pulled Pork Taco is a soft taco with shredded BBQ pork topped with bits of avocado, onions and cilantro. It had a great BBQ taste and the ingredients tasted very fresh. I'll be honest with you, I'm not a fan of avocado but this taco was right on target. Everything came together well and that's what I really like about it. The Latin Macho Burger has a mix of chuck, sirloin and chorizo beef with oaxaca cheese, caramelized onions & jalapenos (aka hottie onions) and red pepper mayo (or you could go the avocadolicious sauce route). It's not a thick burger but 2 thin patties cooked on a flat top.It has a nice fresh bun also. I bit into it and my first thought was, I need to order another one. I stopped long enough to take a picture of the burger after a few bites. One of the best burgers I've had this year. It was devastatingly good. It's different and in this case, it's a way good thing. The fries were not fresh but they were crispy. The fries also had some good seasoning on them, plus I needed them to dip in my guachup. Did I go back for a second Latin Macho Burger? I did but I ended up with their chicken sandwich (which isn't on the menu). I had the option of making it buffalo style, which I didn't take. I had the oaxaca cheese and hottie onions on it. Good stuff. At one point I was dipping it into the guachup. For those of you wondering why I haven't mentioned Food Network's Ingrid Hoffmann and her association with the truck, I have the answer for you. It's not necessary, the food stands well on its own. Check out the Latin Burger Truck, it's a must.
