Taqueria Corona

Taqueria Corona is a real sleeper! Tucked into an ordinary parking space in the middle of the shopping center at E. Mississippi Ave and S. Peoria St (southwest corner), it's real easy to miss, especially since they don't have any real signage. It's visible for a few seconds as you are driving East on Mississippi, but not if you blink. But it is definitely worth seeking out!

In fact, everything except the food is seriously understated.

The selection is perhaps a bit limited, but it is a tiny truck and the servings are generous. We enjoyed asada and adobada tacos and an al pastor burrito. Staffed by two women, and a young boy (12 or so) whose primary function seemed to be to interpret for us gringos, the service was fast and friendly.

Conveniently located about 30 yards away from a carniceria (Mexican butcher shop) this one is definitely worth another visit, soon.
