I am absolutely devastated that I did not get to eat here during #fattyfest weekend. Daris it is you duty to single handedly keep this place afloat until the first football weekend so I can eat here.

Taco Tinga to open in former Dolci & Joe’S

WICHITA — Diners soon will once again be able to find tacos at 3425 East Douglas.

That was Taco Tico’s home years ago before Breezy’s and then Dolci & Joe’s opened there.

Now, Angel Varela and M.M. Karim are opening Taco Tinga there.

Varela used to own the La Hacienda grocery at 31st and Hillside and the La Picosa restaurant within it.

His new restaurant will be similar to a Chipotle Mexican Grill in that customers will walk in and select ingredients from a counter featuring various fillings for tacos, burritos, sandwiches and quesadillas.

Unlike Chipotle, there will be some ready-made items as well, such as chili rellenos and enchiladas.

Initially, Taco Tinga will be open for lunch and dinner seven days a week. Later, breakfast will be available, too.

The restaurant opens Aug. 1.

My favorite thing at la hacienda is the rack where they sell tshirts that were literally given away for free for $3.

Oh man, those mannequins are so scary.

I like looking at the food section and all the Mexicany versions of food. I'll be all "hey look Mexican Oreos! Hey look! Mexican Chips Ahoy!...Look! Mexican Cholula!"

I like the boots. I had pin worms once when i was a kid.

I also ate at La Hacienda yesterday and it was delicious. 4 tacos (3 pastor, 1 lengue) and some chips and salsa for me with a grapefruit jarrisco. Tied for best mex i've had in years. Place it is tied with is called "El Jarrisco" and is only like 3 blocks away from my house.

wow. some people are really over compensating about bad they feel about not being able to live in Manhattan. i know it sucks to be you but try not to ruin the experience for us. even though you reside in big-timey cosmopolitan places like Omaha and KC it makes yourself look small-timey. tia

Still confused on where it is, as I haven't been able to go yet because I've sadly not been back to MHK in a coon's age. Is it where, like, El Cazador used to be? Or over closer to where Breadeaux used to be? Where the hell is this place?
