Copenhagen Taco Truck Named Europe’s Best

Apparently the best food truck in Europe is a taco truck situated in Copenhagen. Some 73 food experts, including Michelin-starred Noma chef Rene Redzepi, along with international bloggers, industry experts and food writers, compiled a long list of contenders throughout Europe. And easyjet Traveller magazine collected the results.

Coming in first place is a Mexican taco stall called Hija de Sanchez. The truck started operations in 2015, and suddenly rocketed to world fame. Owner Rosio Sanchez combines Latin spices with Nordic ingredients for a unique combination. Her stall is at Torvehallerne, and she also has a newly opened restaurant called Vesterbro.

The top 10 list is as follows:

1. Hija de Sanchez, Copenhagen
2. Sea Me at the Time Out Market in Lisbon, which does Japanese/Portuguese fusion food
3. Alain Miam Miam in Paris, whose grilled buckwheat galettes are loaded with organic vegetables
