This Saturday DTFM/Ankeny Unplugged Double Decker Menu Wrecker!
Hello, Taco Likers! We here at your first (and the greater DSM area’s second) favorite taco making operation are proud to announce that this weekend should run a little smoother than last weekend! It turns out that the combination of Friday Night Sips In The City/Saturday Morning Farmers Market was a little more than the boss should have…well, if you were at either you know the point of this. Our chef was having a really good time, and enjoyed every second of both events (except about one hour of chaos saturday morning. whoops.) Really. Good. Time.
Feline Depiction Of Our Chef Between Last Friday and Saturday Events
Let’s reflect a little. Sips In The City was amazing. We were fortunate enough to have a great booth location bestowed upon us, even though we are the NKOTB. Our tiny “Taco Canapes” were a huge hit, serving a grand total of 1350 1.75 inch hand pressed corn tortillas (not a fun undertaking) topped with Vegan Chorizo, Braised Pork, or Beef Cheek. There was a line of at least 15 taco wanters at all time. For three hours. amazing. We made a lot of new friends that night, and spent some time with some old friends from some great businesses. Our new team of Elisabeth “Get to the back of the line if you can’t decide” Ballstadt, Shelby “Sauce Spiller” Conklin, and Cyd “Don’t look up, just make tacos” Mull was amazing to work with. What a great time. Too Great.
We are also super pumped that we will be participating in Ankeny Unplugged this Saturday from 4 until 9. Evidently there is a high demand for vegetarian and gluten free items (every single item we serve is gluten free) to be served at this event series, and we are glad to have caught the last one. Next year we will be there for all their events, if they feel like inviting us back.
So, this brings us to the real subject at hand. This Weekend.
We have a new flavor to put in your mouths this Saturday, which is a Korean Braised Short Rib with Kimchi. Yes, some of you more worldly taco likers will recognize this combination from a certain taco truck in a certain state which serves the only “real” tacos in the country (according to the a-hole at the DTFM a few weeks ago). This will be served at both events saturday.
DTFM:
- Vegan Chorizo
- Braised Pork
- BLT
- Bacon Chorizo
- Korean Short Rib
- BREAKFAST THING
BTW, about the BT last week. I personally apologise for the exclusion of that from the menu, and for the back up tortilla scandal. This weekend will be full on, with all normal stuff kicking it all over our menu. Hey, while you are at our stand, you should pick up some greens and things from our amazing friends Cleverley Farms located exactly one foot west of our booth at 2nd and Court Avenue.
Ankeny Unplugged:
- Vegan chorizo
- Braised Pork
- Korean short rib.
No Breakfast thing, duh. It’s not breakfast time.
This should be a great day filled with fun and tacos. Actually I think the word Taco means Fun in some languages.

Muuwahahaha. Wife will be at a training thing, so I am free to be a taco liker all morning. I plan to be there early and try all the new stuff.
Glad to see you back on with the full menu and legit tortillas. Totally understand why you had to do that, but your food is at it’s best when all cylinders are firing.
Hopefully the new skywalk spot will help you out some in the prep department. Pretty excited to see what you do with that. I will even have to make a special noon time excursion to check it out, which is costly for a non-downtownian.
Bring on the tacos!
