Hamberguesas

all you need is diced onion cilantro and meat for your tacos with two small corn tortillas that were heated on a frying pan

this is for a restaurant. can you be more specific. do you know what they do for street tacos. like the marinade (if there is any) for the meat and how long it keeps.

>shrimp cocktail

That's mexican? Seems like a white yuppie thing.

>>5105753

You should not be working in a restaurant and most certainly not opening one if you're asking this shit on 4chan

i'm not in the kitchen. i'm trying to put together a cook book. currently the waitresses make the food and it's not consistent in flavor and they suck ass at soups and shit. they can get by with the tacos and such..

>marinade
nigger plz, just put salt on it and soak that shit on warm oil

>>5105714
I find my method of slicing multiple vertical lines, then cutting perpendicular to it works pretty well and fast. For something like tomatoes, I think this works best because you can keep your blade sharp. I imagine a dicing machine might crush a tomato a bit.

>>5105732
also, you want to get one of these bastards
you put oil on it, le it warm and then put all your meat inside the oil, bisteck, suadero, chorizito, tripita damn nigger in hungry
and some onions too

Make sure you have some vegan options or you will lose business. Vegans love Mexican food places but the second they find out you use lard in your beans they will never go to your food cart again. Instead, onions and vegetable oil. Wouldn't use animal products in your rice either. It can be just as tasty without.

>>5105803
yeah while you're at it put a starbucks in the business too because that's the only way you'll attract the vegan market.

>>5105803
there's a vegetarian place in my city that I swear pumps lard into their food to make it delicious, but I don't reall give a shit.
