    I went to the Festival of Lights at Van Dusen Botanica Gardens, and I had the pleasure of trying Ay Mamacita's Chori-Queso Torta, and it was FANTASTIC! The perfect blend of spice, hearty meats and soft bread! Would recommend this food truck 10/10! Try it!

    10/10 appearance wise and taste wise! The workers are the loveliest people, their service is beyond amazing and it really shows in the food that they make. I got the steak rice bowl and it was jam packed with flavour and vegetables. Definitely would come back!!

    We had the most delicious Mexican hot chocolate and eggnog horchata from their food truck during our visit to VanDusen Gardens! The fancy marshmallows were a huge hit with our children. Thanks for making our chosen treat such a memorable one!

    Delicious Mexican food! Highly recommend the street corn which is both cheesy and refreshing. The food is all made fresh and from scratch. The friendly owner also custom makes a delicious fiery habanero hot sauce to go with the food. The tamale was nice and soft. Unique fruity drinks too! Was totally yum!

    2 of the nicest people I have ever met. Their tacos hit the spot. I got prawns and chicken and I had 4 large prawns in my tacos... it was falling over. It was deliciously good. Good heat good ratio to meat and veggies and I enjoyed their coconut lemonade too. I even got to taste some chocolate rocks. Made my trip out that day very worth it.
