Fall...It's all about change. New jobs, new school year, new apartment, new town, new clothes and new outlook. It's been a busy month and will get even busier due to multiple teaching opportunities and our move to Bra at last! We are so excited but I am a little scared about the work load I have taken on so blog posts will surely dwindle.
So speaking of change... as Claudio and I were walking towards our car in Torino last Sunday, ready to go home and get the usual Italian pizza, we came across a Mexican taqueria called Revolucion! We were so excited to try something new and see if it could compare to the Californian Mexican cuisine I grew up on.
The warm ambience of wood tables, mexican tiles and open kitchen drew us in. So did the tortilla chips and salsa! The waiter was from Uruguary and kindly helped me out with my annoying "what type of oil do you use" questions. I was also happy to see vegetarian options available.
I chose tacos which seemed more like a quesadilla to be honest but it was still delicious. You know how I love my guac so I was thrilled to see it on the side of my "taco" too. Claudio ordered fajitas which was a large portion but as usual caused some "digestion" problems for the rest of the night. It was a little pricey for a casual "taqueria" but I am not complaining because sometimes it is worth it just for a change. I used to go to Torino for sushi to get my ethnic fix, but now I know I can find easy and fresh Mexican food too! Go get a bite there and see what you think.

good option for you! I agree, looks like a quesadilla! A mistake you can probably live with! good post
ReplyDeleteEmmmm, muy bueno!!!!!! Interesting if next time you order a quesadilla and see what that looks like...
ReplyDeleteyeah really!
DeleteI've only been there once (to the Piazza Vittorio location) and it's ok. Next time you want Mexican food, let me know and you and Claudio can come over for dinner. We can have fajitas (veggie ones too) or tostadas, enchiladas... and I'll make you some quesadillas with REAL cheddar cheese.
ReplyDeleteSonia!!!! That would be amazing! I try to make Mexican food too but sometimes I am missing certain ingredients. I am sure Claudio would love a real Mex experience. I will let you know next time we come up. Thanks for the comment and invite.
