Taco Trucks in Houston?

Hey all:

I know Robb Walsh did a piece on this a couple of years ago, but, well, that was a couple of years ago, so I was wondering what taco trucks you all might recommend in Houston now? Any part of town is OK as long as it's good...

Thanks,

Dennis

    El Ultimo Taco on Antoine and Long Point.
    The trucks behind Caninos.

    Also heard that there is an Indian mobile truck out there somewhere. Anyone know where that one is?

    Anyone have the link for the R Walsh article?

      Here is the link for the Robb Walsh article:

      The taco truck in front of Jarro Cafe is good, too.

      Here is another link to a mobile Indian food truck. Might be what you are looking for. This guy also visits a lot of taco trucks.

      The one's mentioned in the article are great. I really like the venenzuelan one at Westheimer and Fondren.
      There is a truck at 21-22nd around Beal in Shady Acres area that is good. Barbacoa is really tasty and fresh.
      On Patton there is a taco place that only serves beef tacos and quesadillas. The beef is pretty salty but very tasty. The big bonus is the green sauce which is addicting. Its in the parking lot of a tire store. I totally forget the name.
      Primos on shepherd is pretty good.

          I can drive there but forget how to tell people how to get there. It might not be on Patton? Exit Patton from 45 and go east. go right on Fulton and it should be on right hand side shortly thereafter.
