"When we’re craving carnitas and something quick, there’s only one destination we have in mind: El Gallo Giro. This food truck on 23rd Street in the Mission is serving carnitas tacos for which we’d endure 4x Uber surge pricing. The meat is crispy, the tortillas are pillowy, and the tomatillo salsa has a kick (but if you’re looking for something just as delicious that will also give your mouth third-degree burns, get the extra spicy chicharron). El Gallo Giro is cash-only and open for lunch Monday through Friday, so make sure you've stopped by the ATM and have a conveniently timed meeting on your calendar." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
