Las Dos Hermanas Taco Truck, Merced CA

The random stop with no plan in Merced, one exit before my usual Tacos Sinloa. I ordered three tacos, Cabeza, Pastor, and Carnitas.

I think I’ve given up on finding good asada tacos, they’re usually too dry, hence my rotation to cabeza. Cabeza, is not brain tacos, it’s usually beef cheeks.

Dos Hermanas uses a small taqueria size taco; automatically raising the respect bar. I love small tortillas. Each of the meats is quickly seared on the flat-top and a bit of garnish is placed on each taco. Green salsa is used for all the tacos. Of the three, the Cabeza was the best, followed by Carnitas, and the Pastor a distant third (Sinloa has fabulous Pastor. I seriously considered driving down the block to buy one in order to redeem my belief in Pastor)

This truck is parked in the Smart and Final parking lot in Merced, just off Highway 99 and it's worth a stop for the Cabeza taco.
