Excerpt from Feast Magazine
Words by Jenny Vergara
Chef Fernanda Reyes Gonzalez started Taco Naco as a side hustle. She had a full-time kitchen job and only planned to do pop ups at the Overland Park Farmers’ Market, but her food received such rave reviews that she and her husband decided to open Taco Naco Market & Taqueria in Overland Park, Kansas.
The bright and colorful space has tables inside and out, plus a small on-site market with fresh produce, guacamole, salsa, Margarita mix, Mexican sodas and more. Starting at 8am Friday through Sunday, Reyes serves breakfast tacos and breakfast burritos, but lunch and dinner draw the biggest crowds throughout the week.
The seven specialty tacos on the menu are made with tortillas from Yoli Tortilleria and stuffed with al pastor, barbacoa brisket, chimichurri carne asada and cochinita pibil. Reyes also offers two vegan options with either potatoes and green pumpkin seed mole or wild mushrooms, pickled red onion and mild mole.
