Our last trip was a grand finale, indeed. We left Manhattan and journeyed to Jackson Heights, Queens, one of the most diverse neighborhoods in the world. Once in Jackson Heights, we were guided by a fearless man named Jeff. We decided to do a comparison of Taco Bell and Taqueria Coatzingo.
First up, Taco Bell. This joint was hoppin', and we treated ourselves to many items. Tacos, burritos, garditos, double-fried-crazy-chulapas, etc. Taco Bell is cheap, and the menu is very clear, and if you're in a hurry, it might not be a bad idea. However, I must say, the food was rather bland, in my opinion. The salsa was watery and tasted mostly like ketchup.
Next, we went to Taqueria Coatzingo, and this place was a very authentic hole-in-the-wall. We had many of the same dishes, and the dishes here were fresh, warm, flavorful, and delicious. There was fresh and wholesome guacamole, and I almost fell off my chair I was so happy.
In the end, I decided to climb one more fence as a swan song. Unfortunately, it was an electric fence and I received quite a shock. My hair was all over the place, and for the remainder of the day I kept convulsing and waves of electricity pulsed through my body, revealing my inner skeleton. Bzzzz!!!!
I would now just like to give a "shout out" to all of my new friends. It's been an honor heating with you!
Farewell! (for now)
