¿Qué pasa, güey? Mexican Tacos in Madrid

Mexican Tacos madrid is part of The Adios Puerto Rico, Hola España Trip Report. Read TPOL in Madrid: Why A Second Residency?


I’ve been in Madrid for almost a month. I have barely gone more than 2km from my piso, if you don’t include running (see Olé! Where to Workout in Madrid). My plan to do nothing is going according to plan. Speaking of working out, it’s a good thing that I have done so just about every day here. There is no shortage of great restaurants from upscale (see Ten Con Ten Madrid vs. City Hall Scottsdale) to traditional tapas (see Best Tapas Madrid: No Budget Cuts Here). The latest was Tiki Taco. a building with a sign on it

For one to 1.8 euros max, I was able to enjoy a taste of my first residency, Monterrey, Mexico.

For a few euros more, I was almost able to taste the sweet joy of a Sol with saltwater and lime Michelada from my days in Acapulco.

Alas, all they had in Madrid was the original Sol.

And because money is no object when it comes to delicious tacos, I was able to experience Guadalajara as well (see Tacos & Tequila: An Afternoon in Tlaquepaque).

Spending $40 on tacos in one night is justifiable. However, to eat the same amount of tacos every night at this price is impossible. Fortunately, Mexico City is included on my residency tour (see Second Residency: The Definitive List).

So long as I avoid the tourist trap of tacos with a view (see Don’t Pay $30 for Tacos), I will come out way ahead.

TPOL’s Tip: Tiki Taco is located at C. de Guzmán el Bueno, 69, 28015 Madrid
