Barbacoa heart burn descend upon me and curse me with your sinful deliciousness! I reckon it's time to eat standing. Never before has a parking lot smelled so good. Let's all stand beside a taco truck, like kids too close to the TV screen. Let's stare at the menu and fantasize about our options while we watch orders appear in a window, wrapped in thin foil and white paper. This particular taco truck is located in the Fitch Lumber parking lot. Carrboro, NC.
There's something romantic about dining truck-side at dusk in a familiar parking lot. I appreciate the experience because it sheds a new light on a few of life's mundane elements-- A parking lot is filled with the scent of gilled meat and cilantro, a delivery truck is painted with elaborate colorful decals, a telephone pole is dressed with flyers and a taco truck community is created! It's magical-- like the witching hour... and so so tasty.
