As you may or may not know, I am from the western United States where the predominant Latin race is straight-up MEXICAN. I remember the good old days, in the bars downtown - shutting them down at 2:00 AM.... That's right!! Its not like the wild nights in Miami, but what my wild northwestern town had to offer was as wild as you could get. We would come out the clubs, drunk to no end hitting up the food vendors to set 
us straight before the trek home... One of the best options was always the Taco Truck. You don't find them out here so much and I haven't decided if it's because the Latin population in Miami is predominantly everything BUT Mexican, or if its just that you can't find hometown Mexican food this side of the Continental Divide...
Either way, what I have found here, that is the closest I come to my cherished Taco Truck memories is - Taqueria Mexicana Orale! - the Taco Truck in Coral Gables. Coming from an abundance of authentic Mexican food, this is by far the closest I have come to authentic. Granted the menu is minimal, however the quality in my eyes is great. Simple yet authentic. Go for a simple taco de carne asada and add some cilantro and some hot sauce and WOW. I love this joint!! GO there
, GO there, Go there, especially if you have any appreciation for authentic Mexican and locals. I never forget this country was founded by immigrants and I appreciate their contributions even if in the format of Food... 
The only time I have ever seen this wonderful taco truck has been Saturdays and Sundays at a park across from Douglas Cove apartments and south of DaVinci apartments on S.W. 37th Street.
Seriously - go stuff your face!
