I am generally not a meat eater, I can't stand the whole idea behind it or the way it tastes…read more
When I am in Mexico however I will try things and I can honestly say the difference in taste is amazing.
La Oriental is the bomb! The best tacos Arabes in Puebla with Tacos Tony in a close second.
The pork is slow cooked all day on a spit then wrapped in tender fresh baked shawarma bread. They usually have a yummy chipotle type salsa to go with it.
These tacos are found mainly in Puebla, Mexico. They were were brought to Mexico by Middle Eastern Immigrants and the meat was originally lamb.
La Oriental's meat is tender, juicy and exploding with flavor. Hints of cumin, pepper and oregano. The meat is marinated first before it is sliced thinly and put on a spit and layered with onions.
You can also order the meat by the kilo and take it with you. They will provide you with plenty of salsa, shawarma and beer if that is your preference.
This place is amazing, the people are warm and friendly. My favorite!
