Taqueria Casa Real
As you may know, my love for Mexican food knows very little
bounds, and as it forces me to move ever outward in my search for that perfect
taco, that exquisite burrito, that incredible quesadilla, occasionally I miss
places in my own backyard. That is the case with Real Taco, mere minutes down
the road in Dorchester. Located a few blocks
down from Andrew Square,
Real seems to do Central American comfort food pretty well. They've got the
homemade street cart favorites like fried plantains to hit your sweet-tooth,
fantastic salsa and guac, (although the chips are bleh if you get them a bit
late), and decent burritos. I'm going to draw your attention to the tacos,
especially the Taco Flauta, which is Spanish for fucking A. We're talking
chicken, potato, peppers, wrapped in tortilla, and DEEP FRIED. Toss that to me
with a side of beans and I'm pretty stoked. It's cheap, it's quick, and the staff prepares everything right
in front of you, so if you're driving down Dot Ave and you need a salsa fix, Taco
Flauta to go. It's worth it.
