Taco trucks

The other day, Sunday I believe it was, we thought we try the food at another taco truck around town.  Our first taco truck experience was last year, at Tin Can Tacos in Helotes.  The tacos were good and it was comfortable since the truck was parked near some trees.  That is a great thing to have by a taco truck since it is so hot outside.  So, at Tin Can Tacos, you can sit at some picnic tables placed under the trees.
On Sunday, we tried the tacos out of a truck called Chela's Tacos.  Actually, these vehicles are really more like old Air Stream trailers than trucks.  Chela's Tacos is painted bright red and all it has to escape the heat is a little awning over the area where you order.  This little Air Stream is parked out in the sun, no shade around and no picnic tables.  But oh those tacos are delicious!!!   We ordered three, and ate them standing up beneath the awning.  You get your drinks from a huge ice chest that is next to the trailer.  (Bottled coke from Mexico!)  Those three tacos were so good that we decided to order some more to have the next day for breakfast.  At both Tin Can Tacos last year in Helotes and at Chela's Tacos, there were lots of people waiting to order tacos.
We will definitely go back to Chela's Tacos if we are ever in the area (UTSA Blvd), we only wish they had shade from trees and a few places to sit down.
