This Mexican grocer may not be the first place that comes to mind when thinking of tacos, but if you’re in the area, you should absolutely pop by!

If that punny stall name isn’t enough to entice you, how about a succulent, meatilicious patty between fluffy buns with arugula and tomato jam for only $8? This kopitiam stall dishes out a decent fullblood Wagyu Steak Frites at $12.50 (with truffle salt!) too, and a gargantuan Fish Taco ($5.50) with two slabs of battered fish and spicy mayo. Pretty darn legit!
