WWFB: Hometown Taco Edition
The scene: You’re on your home turf in Milwaukee. It’s (Inter?)National Taco Day and you are nothing if not patriotic.
Scroll for before, during, and after pics from our visit to The Laughing Taco.
Their boozy slushies (Paloma for me, traditional margarita for my husband) are legit and will f.you.up, but what we really need to talk about is their Gringa taco… marinated pork, onions, cilantro, on a tortilla that has been crisped with cheese on the grill. Life is complete. This is the only taco you need. Also pictured (foreground): shrimp taco…skip it. You need those Gringas in your belly, stat!
VERDICT: 11/10 This place will ruin you for other tacos.
UPDATE: The Laughing Taco closed their restaurant space and now do catering and operate a stall at Fiserv Forum, where they do not serve the majestic Gringa taco. We are cherishing our memories of the OG Laughing Taco experience in the hopes they shall return in full form someday.
