Since we are on a trompo taco kick we set sights for one of our favorite spots across from Bachman Lake to Bachman Tacos and Grill set inside the gas station at 3311 Northwest Highway.

It tastes like a delicious holiday plate, but in this case, the plate is a pizza—and therefore better. Continue reading
