Pho Goodness

La Taqueria
Taco Feast for Two
What started as a single taco stand is now a Vancouver Mexican street food empire — authentic tacos, bold salsas, fresh ingredients at multiple city locations (including a new downtown Pinche Taco Shop on Seymour). Prices have climbed: the two-for-$20 play is happy hour, when tacos drop to about $5–6 CAD each — regular orders push a pair well past $25.
