It used to be that the only good thing about Tuesday was, well, nothing. But the anonymous spin doctors behind national food days (like“Turkey Neck Soup Day” or “Rhubarb Pie Day”) have given this day a make-over with Taco Tuesdays.
Here are a few reasons and places to help you celebrate one of the most non-celebratory days of the week:
Tijuana Flats: My neighborhood location is always packed with families on Tuesday nights. The Deal: $4.99 for two tacos of your choice- chicken, beef, steak, refried beans or black beans. The deal includes a side of chips and a drink. It can get busy, so to avoid the queues I call ahead for pick-up. Online ordering is also available. Visit www.tijuanaflats.com for locations.
Mercadito Midtown: This trendy hotspot in the heart of Miami’s culinary center upgrades the taco with a wide choice of fillings: pescado (grilled tilapia), pastor (adobo pork), camaron (shrimp), carnitas (chipotle barbecue pork), carne (steak), hongos (mushrooms), pollo (adobo chicken) or estilo baja (beer battered mahi-mahi). The Deal: $2.50 tacos starting at 5p.m. Must order a minimum of two tacos of the same filling. Mariah Carey, Shakira and Kate Hudson are fans of the food. Mercadito Midtown is located at 3252 NE First Ave., Miami. Call 786-369-0430 or visit www.mercaditorestaurants.com.

Tequila Sunrise: What goes better with tacos than tequila? A side of savings!

THE ULTIMATE DEAL: Surf Road Taco: California is to tacos what New York is to pizza. Hermosa Beach, California natives and Surf Road Tacos owners Caite and Chris share their love of So-Cal style tacos and fresh ingredients with choices including Baja (tempura-battered mahi-mahi), South Bay (grilled mahi-mah), Shorty (grilled shrimp-my favorite), Land Lover (shredded beef), Frube (chicken), Big Spender (pork), OC Veggie (this one is obvious) and Croco (yes, it is alligator). The Deal: $2.25 for two tacos, which are sold in duos, instead of individually. Deal valid until 3p.m. Surf Road Taco is located at 101 NE Third St., Hallandale Beach.
