Perhaps the best pregame meal on offer for Austin FC games is just outside the stadium gates, in the Sunoco gas station parking lot.

Six taco trucks feature regional Mexican specialties.

Where we ate: Taqueria Mi Zacazonapan, named after the owner's hometown, about 3.5 hours southwest of Mexico City.

The menu features street tacos, sopes, quesadillas and a torta Cubana.

What we ordered: Campechana taco ($3.50) — succulent bistec and chorizo on a corn tortilla with cilantro and onion and slices of cucumber. Try the green salsa for some heat.

Of note: On Saturdays, the truck offers goat barbacoa tacos with consommé.

📍 If you go: The Sunoco is on Braker Lane, just north of the stadium.
