Taqueria La Morena

Taco Truck Extravaganza 2010 continues with our adventure to Whitehall this afternoon. Hoping that the taco trucks would find us, instead of going by the Alive or Yelp guides (just testing the chaos theory, folks - the Alive article and the Yelp lists are wonderful), we happened upon Taqueria La Morena right about the time we were going to pass out from hunger (no, really - I kept forgetting to "go" at green lights...). Turns out, this taco truck has only been open a couple weeks - and it's a newbie definitely worth checking out. So, we ordered something similar to what we got at La Super Torta II (the last taco truck on this summer of taco wonderment): here, we got one each carne asade taco, cabra (goat) torta, and a pineapple drink, the name of which sadly escapes me. The tacos were good (I liked the chorizo ones at La Super Torta better), but the torta here was outstanding - five stars. The bread was slightly less condensed than at the last taco truck, making it easier to eat, and the cabra meat was so tender and delicious... The torta also had shredded raddish and cilantro, and the owner (I assume) was kind enough to provide us with three types of hot sauce, all of which were too hot for me, but which the boy thoroughly enjoyed (esp. the habanero). There were also plentiful freshly cut limes for all of our food. The man who I'm guessing is the owner was really nice - I will have to ask the boy what his name was, as they were conversing in Spanish and I know possibly the least Spanish of any American ever (fail, considering that I'm around Mexican guys so much). Anyway, the owner's family was hanging out and the boy had a conversation with him and another man about where to find charcoal roasted goat in Cbus (apparently nowhere - but if you know a place, PLEASE let me know!). This was a really great random find in Whitehall. Like I said, La Morena is new - the food is excellent and the service is friendly and nice - so if you're in the neighborhood, show them some love. Support your local businesses - and your local taco trucks! Taco trucks forever!!

I am a taco lover. So I'm always looking for the best Taco truck are business. I've been searching around the city for the best Taco's's and I thought I found the best Until I stumbled upon this gem let me tell ya these are the best Tacos in the city by far and they are so sweet and the service is amazingly fast due to how busy they are. Trust you will not be disappointed

Finally got a chance to eat at this place and it was great!I got a chorizo burrito, paired with a bottle of guava jarritos (furthering my quest in tasting every one of the varieties of jarritos). the food stayed nice and hot through my 5 minute drive home, and man was that a good burrito.The ingredients were all fresh, the chorizo itself was rather dry, but I think that's because it wasn't as fatty as other chorizo I've had before.Price for the aforementioned meal? $6.50. Subway can shove their five dollar footlong, I'd rather have a burrito like this anyday.

Ordered lunch here. Service was quick. Steak burrito was perfect. Will definitely be back
