Calle 3, Apopka
I tried this new (four months) Mexican street kitchen today at lunch. It was fairly good. It is listed as being at 1664 South OBT. I typed that into a search and it sent me to downtown. I even drove back OBT to the north where the numbers changed and it wasn't there either of course. When I typed in Apopka and the address it gave me the right directions. And the signs and map say 441, so, I'm not sure why they insist on saying it is on OBT. I had a fried stuffed triangle (3 to an order) called a Kekadilla for $6. They were covered with cotija and chipotle mayo. They were ok. I also had a Carnitas Taco Grease for $2.50. It was good. The pork was a little dry. I was the first customer, so, maybe all the juice settled to the bottom of whatever they were storing it in and they just picked my portion off the top of the pile? I hate having to make excuses for places. The taco came with pico, pickled onions and avocado crema. It was served in a freshly made corn tortilla. I also had two street tacos at $1.50. A asada and a pollo. The pollo was plastic and salty. The asada was better. Still salty. Also, on corn tortillas and with raw, white onions and cilantro. Maybe some salsa. They offer a chorizo street taco as well. They have three other grease tacos. Two flautas. Four apps. Three snacks. Two tostadas. Four mains. They also throw in some dark brown, slightly thicker and smaller tortillas with every order. The style is Mexico City. The menu says that the owner has twenty years experience as a chef. The place is smallish. It is in a strip mall in front of a Walmart. It is rectangular. You order at a counter. The tables have a metallic look. White and black paint. It's trying to be foodie friendly. If they tighten up the execution (less salt and fresher, less cooked meat) it could be something. I liked the starch based components. I would tell you to find it if it wasn't so far out of the way and if there weren't an overload of these types of places in every neighborhood.
