Andábamos por la zona, se nos antojaron unos tacos al pastor y pasamos a El Kalimán. Una taquería con historia y tradición; como un viaje en el tiempo al ver la decoración y el mobiliario. El servicio es atento y rápido; sólo probé los de pastor y me gustaron. Quizás un poquito más doraditos y con unos gramos extra de carne estarían en su punto máximo. Las salsas no son malas, pero les falta picor. Me parecen una buena opción para saciar el hambre y el antojo.

El pastor es muy rico, al igual que el agua de horchata. La gringa no es como sincronizada es sin una de las tortillas Pero igual es buena.
