Our latest taco adventure takes on a quest to find a good taco for under a buck.
Why it matters: It used to be easy to find a taco for a dollar, but not anymore. Some high-end street tacos can cost as much as $10.
Where we visited: Taqueria & Tamaleria Nuevo León, 2069 N. Central Expressway #100 in Richardson
What to order: Trompo at Nuevo León, al pastor at La Laguna, and carnitas at Shop N Go.
Cost: 99 cents
Yes, but: Nuevo León and La Laguna only have cheap tacos on Tuesdays. Ahem, hop in your cars.
Six-word review: Exceeded our expectations, especially for cost.
