Jalisco, named after the state in Mexico, was voted best in the county out of 26 participants and was the only food truck.
Jalisco is a family owned and operated taco truck, started by Ricardo Verduzco, Warsaw, 36, eight years ago. Verduzco never thought it would see the success it currently has, and gives thanks to the regular customers. When asked what makes the tacos special, Verduzco stated it was “the people who come who make it special.”
Jalisco offers nine different meats, with all the food being prepared in the truck. Verduzco said that the asada taco is his most requested taco, stating that some people are cautious to try meats such as buchez – pork stomach.
Verduzco, wife Silvia, son Ricardo and daughter Cristal operate the food truck 10 a.m – 8 p.m . seven days a week. While Verduzco used to take the taco truck to events, such as the county fair, he has found his best success right where he is at.
Verduzco says his current goal is to move his restaurant into a building. “That has always been the goal,” he says. He is currently looking to be located on Winona Avenue, Warsaw.
Food critic Marshall King visited Jalisco Aug. 8 to taste Kosciusko’s best taco. Although King’s opinion doesn’t affect the voting results, after the winner is announced Indiana’s Cool North will announce King’s choice for the best tacos.
Voting is currently underway in the taco wars. In recent weeks, voters have helped select restaurants in each of the seven counties. The final round of voting to pick an overall winner is happening online. Voting will end at noon Aug. 14.
