Street Taco Tapestries
Description: Tucson is very much a college town. Couple that with being a short drive to the Mexican border, and it should come as no surprise that there is no shortage of really good Mexican food options. In 1982, Dirty Sanchez Taco Shop added their name to the list of places to grab a bite. Located in the city's Barrio Hollywood neighborhood, Dirty Sanchez was an unassuming hole in the wall that offered traditional Mexican favorites. Their claim to fame was that they made everything from scratch using abuela's generational recipes. Nothing canned or microwaved – just made fresh daily Mexican food of a quality that rivaled pretty much everyone in town.
Description: Taco Tio is one of the long-forgotten fast-food chains that has been lost to the winds of time. Sadly, very little information exists on these guys, but from what we were able to pull together, they opened up shop on March 4th, 1967 on Van Nuys Blvd. in Burbank with ten-cent tacos all day long and went on to open several more throughout Southern California. Given their proximity to the TV and movie studios, their unique cactus signs can be spotted in numerous driving scenes in TV shows and movies throughout the '60s and '70s.
