Por Siempre
$ Tacos, Vegan

It’s been years since I have been so excited about writing a review. As far as vegan street tacos are concerned, Por Siempre (Forever) crushes all other taco places I’ve ever been before and I can’t ever look at tacos the same way again.
For one, this is a NIGHTTIME street taco place. I came to the Roma Norte during the day to find this place closed. I was so bummed out, I had to come back later at night. I knew a place like this would be busy, so I came back shortly after they opened at 6:45 p.m. and there were already about ten people waiting for their food.
I got the Big Bebe and the Al Pastor, both of which are incredible. But the Big Bebe, however, is unbelievable; it has like so many flavors of spice, that I don’t think I could do justice describing what was going on on top of my tongue. I believe both came with seitan/trigo and not soy, but I am not sure what kind of fake meat was in that big baby. I want to go back tomorrow, so I might write an update. They also offer free salsa, nopals/nopales/cactus, and potatoes to put on top of the tacos.
I am glad that there are so many soyrizo fans, as then I know they won’t run out of the options that I am into if I ever stay in the DF again. I am not against soyrizo per se, it’s just that every place in LA seems to offer it and it tastes like a boca burger, chili, and Worcestershire sauce blended together.
