Tick Taco

As summer winds to an end, the clock continuing to tick (I hope this and what I ate explains the title of this post), I find myself eating out a lot more than usual, whether it be with friends or with my parents. I am just trying to pack in all the good NYC food before I head back to school. But this is actually an old post. My memory is not the greatest, but I assure you that when it comes to food, I remember. About a month ago, my parents and I went to Cascabel Taqueria for lunch.

The flavors were very bright and light (oh my, I’m rhyming!), and overall, I enjoyed the food very much. To start with, my parents and I shared a cobb salad with romaine, grilled corn, avocado, tomato, cheese, and shallots. What is not to like?

I then continued with the reason I came to Cascabel – the tacos. I ordered carnitas which had slow-cooked succulent pork, pickled red onion, and crispy rice. My dad ordered the chicken tacos and my mom ordered the carne asada. Though I didn’t try those tacos, they looked very good, and my parents liked them.

And a pleasant surprise after our tacos – the waitress brought us complimentary churros for dessert. Yum!
