Loreto is our port of call. The last time here this was a sleepy little spot. This trip there is a motorcycle event in town and the activity level is high. One of our favorite T.V. chefs is Chuck Hughes from Canada. On his show (Chuck's week off,) he visited Loreto with a stop at El Rey Del Taco (taco king.) As we wandered the streets and plazas we asked directions. We knew we were close but the narrow streets and alleys seem different than they show on a map. We finally found it and wandered in. What a crowd! The couple that own the place work at a crazy pace to keep up with the orders. The orders are all verbal and the cash register is a five gallon bucket on the counter. The menu is limited but the buffet of salsas and toppings make for lots of choices. We ordered the fish tacos on flour tortillas. The fresh local fish is battered and quickly fried tempura style . What a sensation! I want to move next door and eat here all the time.

I bet those tacos were fantastic. Sometimes I will remember a fantastic food dish more than the trip.
The best! I was amazed how much food they prepared on what I would call minimal-rustic equipment.
