Short description

Fire up the comal! Help Axo the axolotl run a little taco truck in a lively plaza: shave al pastor off the trompo, pour horchata and roll churros in cinnamon sugar.

Long description

Axo the axolotl runs a little taco truck in a lively town plaza, and tonight the line is already forming. Raise the awning, open the window and cook every dish by hand, from golden hour into the evening, with papel picado overhead and the string lights coming on.

Press tortillas and top tinga and carne asada tacos just right, shave al pastor off the spinning trompo and flick a pineapple piece on top, pour horchata, jamaica, tamarindo and fresa con leche, roll churros in cinnamon sugar, and grill elotes with mayo, cotija, chile and lime.

Each step is graded, from GOOD to PERFECT: close to the line beats fast. Spend your tips on upgrades, rank up to unlock new dishes and Plaza Rush days, light up the plaza on weekend Plaza Nights, and draw a lotería card every day.
