$59+ Tacos (jeans included).
If you’re looking for a taco and a coupon for a new pair of jeans, look no further than Pico de Gap.
“The idea of Pico de Gap—and the taco truck used in our fall campaign 1969: L.A. and Beyond—came about one night when I was having dinner with our 1969 design team in downtown L.A.,” said Seth Farbman, Gap’s Chief Marketing Officer.
There you have it folks. Dinner inspires food truck marketing campaign.
Once the truck hits my end of town I’ll be sure to give a full report. Follow on Twitter: @PicodeGapLA
p.s.
It should be noted. I don’t go a single day without wearing at least one article of clothing from GAP. Today: cardigan, jeans, belt AND underwear. BOOM. -
SWM robber is jonesin for some nachos.
In an apparent last-ditch attempt to make the “Dumbest Criminals of the Year” list, an El Jebel man allegedly broke into the Fine Line Bar & Grill early Tuesday morning, stole some cash and started a fire while trying to make himself nachos. He was caught that afternoon when he couldn’t outrun his pursuers because his pants were sagging almost down to his knees.

Santa Ana has more tacos per capita than any other U.S. city.
Arrested Development introduces Santa Ana to the world in an episode titled ¡Amigos!
Michael: I’m going to have to start putting people in the trunk.
Narrator: At that very moment, Buster was climbing into the trunk.
Buster: [videotaping himself] Mother, when you see this tape, you will know that I’ve left. Not out of cowardice, but out of… man, it’s tired in here!
Narrator: Six minutes later, Michael stopped to drop off his mother’s housekeeper.
Buster: [Buster climbs out of the trunk] Mexico.
Narrator: In fact, Buster was in Santa Ana, a town six minutes inland from his own, but the combination of losing his glasses and breathing carbon monoxide had impaired Buster’s judgement.
Buster: [seeking shelter] This will keep me safe from the hot Mexican sun.
Lupe: Excuse me, what are you doing?
Buster: I’m trying to find a place to live!
…
I challenge anyone who says they can find great Mexican food in abundance outside of Southern California (save Mexico of course). Specifically, great tacos.
Tacos Sinaloa delivered in Santa Ana on Friday’s lunch break.
Just a short jaunt from my new office it’s comforting to know delicious al pastor tacos are so close. There’s a fish tank with a sign in both Spanish and English “Don’t touch the glass Nemo doesn’t like it,” Mexican candy and a green sauce with a delayed punch of spicy. “The green stuff is good… oh my God that’s spicy.”
I can’t handle spicy. I know, don’t judge me. I have a complex about it and it’s rather embarrassing when you take one bite of an asada taco and break out into a sweat. I downed my horchata and shoveled chips into my mouth hoping to break the heat. The other TAN contributors love spice and welcome more of it. I will be requesting salsa on the side.

Nacho Sunday: Acapulco 11/21/10
Every Sunday we attempt to eat nachos. Exclaiming “It’s Nacho Sunday!” it’s a lot of fun. Eating nachos is pretty rad too. We hope it catches on.
The best part of this Nacho Sunday was the waiter’s stealth like demeanor. Vanishing like a ghost once he took a request or acknowledged everything was fine at the table.
The nachos? They were alright.
