Seafood Taco Specialist Mariscos Jalisco Asks Twitter Where to Park New Truck

Los Angeles’ famous seafood specialist Mariscos Jalisco hinted on Twitter yesterday that a new taco truck is imminent, and asked its followers where the rig should park. Mum is the word on the Mariscos Jalisco Twitter account’s official consensus, but the post is causing a stir on social media.

Last night, a mysterious Tweet asked “What city should we stop by first ? NEW LUNCHTRUCK COMING SOON.” The account seems to be taking temperature on a few things, asking if fans would appreciate a permanent new location, or pop-ups in different cities. They provided no firm answers, but re-Tweeted followers suggestions for locations in California and throughout the country. Eater reached out to owner Raul Ortega, who did not share any details. Yet.
