El Campero – Industrial Decay

ElCamperoFrontSmThis taqueria was recommended by Corpus OfficeWorks’ own in-house saviour Heather Lynch.  If you like industrial urban decay, you’ll enjoy your drive here.  I did have to fend off one panhandler upon entering the drive through but he was deflected by a mere wag of my head.  Great signage.  The drive-through has no remote speaker or menu, but the server spoke english natively and was sharp.  The drive thru sign itself is a rustic masterpiece.

ElCamperoTacosThe tacos are slightly larger than normal, with thick homemade tortillas measuring around 8 1/4 inches.  The salsa wasn’t spectacular and they only gave me red.  The chorizo could have had more grease.  The carne guisada was quite good, with a sauce almost as thick as the beef was tender.  It countered the flavor of the salsa well.  Standard coffee. Well worth the short drive.  Especially with the Gabfest.
