Senor Roy's

I had just been downtown earlier. Since I was on my own on Friday I didn't stick around for the concert series. I went to see a move in Newport and then got a tweet that the taco truck was back at fountain square. Since I was sort hungry and relatively close... Why the hell not?

Here she is. Just parked up on the square. If I had tacos in my truck and parked on the square, I'm sure people would not be pleased. But anyways. . I perused the menu and found some interesting options. Not being terribly hungry I decided on 2 tacos. My server/preparer was really nice and helped me along since I'd never been before.

On the left you have corn tortilla, rice, Al Pastor meat (pork marinated in adobo and pineapple), corn salsa, sour cream, pickled red onion, chihuaua cheese. Pretty tasty. They guy at the window said it was the best of their meat options. I liked it quite a bit. I could taste the pineapple in the meat and the sweetness went well with the onion and salsa.

On the right you have flank steak with the same toppings as the other. This was definitely not marinated. It was not bland. But I was not too impressed either. It could have used some salt. All in all I am happy with the tacos and I really want to try the other stuff that they have.

And here's some shots of the fountain for good measure...

Poor geese...

It would be prettier if there wasn't an eyesore of a square restaurant behind the fountain....
