Now you might be wondering why I'm posting about what one might consider the "competition". Well. It's simple. has a genuinely incredible product. They're not trying to over reach with an over convoluted menu, instead focusing on a few items, done very well, with passion and care.

Small businesses, especially those of us willing to brave the cold and elements need to band together and lift each other up.

Get yer asses here to today and get you some damn delicious birria! Then come to Maffeo Sutton Monday the 17th and have some Papi. Who gets tired of tacos?!

TLDR: In Mexico Al Pastor is usually made on a Trompo which slowly spins the marinaded meat until it slowly begins to char when it is then sliced off straight into a tortilla with warm piña and served up with cilantro, onion and a variety of salsas. Health regulations in Canada don't allow us to use this method but what you see here is the next best thing! The marinade is the same, the toppings too! And best of all the unmistakable essence of flame grilled meat still shines through. It takes time but we hope you think it's worth it! #alpastor #tacosdepastor #foodcart #sintrompo #grilled #charedmeat #distritofederal #flamegrilled #grillporn #nanaimofoodtrucks #nanaimo #tacos #mexicanadian
