Mercadito La Mexicana ( Venta Boletos Autobus Omnibus Express ) — Restaurant in Kingwood

You know you are in an authentic Mexican taqueria/meat market when you see a cooked whole head of a cow in the hot food window. There was one girl, who spoke English, who helped translate my order. It was early and I hadn't had any caffeine yet so my habla Espanol was not working at all. 😂 I got a few birra tacos that were yummy!
