I finally found my taco haven><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good guac and yummy tacos! Count me in, this year\u2019s Royal Oak Taco Fest was a success for me. I tried a few different restaurants and found myself enjoying my food!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s get into it: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This festival also features live music, additional food vendors like Egg Roll Diva, Caribbean-inspired foods and vendors selling jewelry and apparel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to bounce houses, mechanical bulls, food eating contests, crafts and face painting for a family-friendly event!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What did I eat? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I am a flour shell taco girly, so WARNING – this is not<\/strong> a corn shell appreciation post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flour shell. Chicken. Lettuce. Cheese. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In that order and possibly a dash of salsa!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I enjoyed the size of these tacos! However, I ate them too quickly after my first taco, and it made me feel queasy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As someone who just started eating guacamole, this was the perfect guac for me. Not too many onions, I couldn’t taste cilantro if there was any! It was of great quality and digestible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price: $13.56<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Egg Roll Diva<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before I left, I made sure to grab a corned beef egg roll from Egg Roll Diva. As usual, it was amazing!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price: $12 for TWO<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How were the vibes?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I went Saturday around 3 p.m. and there weren\u2019t big crowds or long lines. You were able to move around freely and find spaces to eat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vibes were great, but the heat was too demanding! I felt like I was smothering in it and my clothes were getting soaked in sweat! EWW<\/p>\n\n\n\n
