These aren’t your padre’s tacos. 🌮🌮
Organizers say the idea of “Taco Tuesday” is about to go over-the-top during a new event starting at 5:30 p.m. this Tuesday, June 19 at the Fraze , 695 Lincoln Park Blvd., Kettering
Amy Zahora, executive director of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association, said eateries were asked to put their own spin on one of the world's most popular handheld foods for the Fraze's Taco Tuesday.
“We have traditional tacos from El Meson — fish, chicken and beef — as well as Reuben tacos from Amber Rose and Spaghetti tacos from Giovanni’s,” she said.
“We also have Taco lasagna and traditional Latin American emapanadas, arepas and more.”
