Guess what? I love tacos. Actually, they are my favorite food dish. But guess what I don’t love? Tuesdays (not too much anyway…). At least it’s not Monday. The problem with Tuesday is that there is still a ways to go until the weekend. You can bet, though, on Tuesday, I am somewhere eating a taco. Why you ask? Well, add a little “taco special” to your “Tuesday” and suddenly, Tuesdays become much more bearable.
I don’t know where the idea for Taco Tuesday originated, but I’d like to personally thank those involved. With deals around Wichita as low as 60 cents per taco, Tuesday becomes a day to celebrate. And don’t they just taste that much better when they’re on special? Grab the family and take advantage of these deals without putting a dent in your wallet!

We’ve been to Paleteria Reyna on N Arkansas several times and like it. Also Uno Mas on 21st Street just East of Amidon (south side of Dillons store) but I don’t know if they have any Tuesday specials.
