Regular contributor Priya Krishna wrote about them in today's New York Times Food section, Maritza and Reyna have had tremendous success with their restaurant Veracruz.I All Natural. lt is popular because it sells true regional Mexican food like street corn loaded with queso fresca and refreshing raspado, a refreshing shaved ice dish created from spices pureed fruit and milk. The Vazquez sisters also make pork torta, a fiery pulled pork sandwich. Their breakfast taco or miga is a stand our, much beloved by Austen residentsThe recipes have an extensive following. from local food magazine editor Nadia CHaudery to Rachel Ray. Veracruz has even made it into the South by SOuthwest Festival.
The sisters came to Texas twenty-two years ago with their mother and Maritza's former husband and stepdaughter. They worked at a taqueria and was displeased with the food they made there. It was all Tex=Mex loaded with queso>They were successful in showing the locals good regional food from south of the border. Their LA one called Hot Tacos will sell tacos, taco bowls and quesadillas, It will be reasonably priced with a steak bowl going for eleven dollars.They also have celebrated other Mexican immigrants by supporting them when they've opened up their own eateries.
There are food trucks and there are food trucks that stand out. Hot Tacos will be like Veracruz All Natural will stand out. It will introduce good Mexican home cooking to a whole new fan base longing for the real taste of Mexico
