I had never heard of a Marquesita before until we came upon the food cart located in the Parque de…read morelas Palapas. We were looking to try out some traditional desserts that we had never experienced before. Of the many food carts parked side by side, this one seemed to attract our attention the most. We stood by and watched how the Marquesita is made. Batter is added to a crepe pan and cooked made to order. A variety of fillings were available to choose from, but we asked for their most popular food item. Apparently shredded cheese and nutella is a favorite choice of the locals. Joe K and I shared this unusual dessert combo, and the blend was better than I expected. I wasn't quite sure at first if I would like cheese and chocolate together, but it turned out pretty tasty after all. It was a nice ending to our all day food truck food binge at the park!

So, being the first English language reviewer on the page, let me explain what this is. Marquesitas are pastries, to go pastries to be exact, rolled into some sort of a fried crispy tortilla, with cheese and a dash of nutella. Granted, there are a few variations, but the one I got appeared to be the most common. The flavor combo is amazing and it's a true street food dessert that you cannot miss while traveling! The truck stays open late, I came close to 11pm. Sometimes the most unexpected combinations get you, so you if you are a mildly adventurous eater, make sure to give this a try!

The truck parks in front of Mega during the day, but the hours can be somewhat finicky; you may go some days and it's already moved elsewhere. It's easy to find though, because it'll be the only one with a huge mass of people around it! There's plenty of grilled and raw onions to be had for toppings, along with cucumber and a spicy red sauce that brings tears to even this Sriracha-obsessed palette! Two to three tacos is perfect for lunch.

It was SO GOOD, I think it might have been the best hot dog I've ever had and ordered one for myself. I ended up sharing it with my other friend (they also ran out of hotdog buns so we just ate it with a fork), and since it was after dinner, half of it was good enough for two people. I could have ordered another one just for the taste, but we were there late and they stopped serving food. I had several mezcalitas, played jenga which was on the table already (the table next to us also had one, and enjoyed the overall vibe. It was an outdoor place with covering, so it did shield us from the downpour. There is a bar in the back, and picnic tables in the "main area". It reminded me of a beer garden a little. Very chill and relaxed place, and the servers and bartenders were nice.

I was looking for El Rey Del Taco to grab one last taco before my flight out. It wasn't there so I walked around looking at other carts and decided to give Kuni a try. I am so glad this was my last meal in Playa because it was the best way to end my trip. I wish I could tell everyone in Playa to go here and try the tacos. I'm sad I didn't know about Kuni before but I will be coming back to PDC just for these tacos. I tried the fish taco (pescado) and the shrimp taco (Cameron.) I can't even decide which one I like more because they were both so delicious and fresh. The seafood is fried fresh right there in front of you. Everything is so fresh and it's all made right there. The sauces are all made fresh right there. They have fresh sliced cabbage, cucumbers, and diced tomatoes and onions. There are a variety of fresh sauces they make. I used the habanero and chipotle mayo. Perfect combination. They also don't touch the money with their bare hands which I thought really showed how concerned they are about cleanliness. There was a man, woman, and younger boy working there so I assume they were a family. The man spoke perfect English and was so friendly. That was the best experience I've had in PDC. I wish I had more time to try the calamari tacos and the jalapeño stuffed with crab tacos. Next time! I could go on and on about how incredible this place was but you really should try it for yourself. The prices are so cheap too. It's around 20 pesos a taco which is so cheap. Do not waste your time on an over priced mediocre meal on 5th ave. Seriously do yourself the best favor ever and indulge in these delicious tacos. Unfortunately I didn't have my phone to take picture. Take my word for it, they are incredible!

One thing I love about this place is that their general bar area has some great deals on drinks! I got a couple of beers, with chamoy and everything was roughly ~$3 (USD).

About street taco sized, maybe a little bigger. Tried their signature fogoncito bistec which consists of beef, bacon, chorizo and melted cheese. Comes with side or tortilla so you can make your own tacos. Delicious with incredibly savory and tender meat. Pair it with a couple Mexican lagers for a perfect mid day meal.
