Serving tacos from a ‘lunchbox trailer,’ the un-foodtruck.
The Taco Buggy, Atlanta’s first Volkswagen Beetle foodtruck, is coming soon.
Part VW Beetle, part “lunchbox trailer,” the foodtruck will serve soft tacos with international flavor, according to Dean Gebert, The Taco Buggy co-owner.
“The concept is unique, just like the vehicle,” Gebert told What Now Atlanta in an email.
Here’s how it works:
1. Pick one of three meats
- Ribeye Steak
- Chicken Breast
- Pulled Pork
2. Pick one of five flavors
- Stinkin’ Incan – tomato, onion, cilantro, topped with french fries
- Chipotle Off the Ol’ Block – onion, avocado, cilantro, with chipotle sauce
- Ricky Bobby – poblano coleslaw, tomato, with Texas BBQ sauce
- Dirty Sanchez – black bean and red onion salsa, with spicy chimichurry sauce
- Taco On the Beach – roasted pineapple-mango relish, goat cheese, cilantro
3. Orders are taken by iPad
A flatscreen located inside the cart will play old black-and-white comedies, like Laurel and Hardy, Little Rascals and The 3 Stooges.
“It’s all part of making Taco Buggy a fun and delicious street food experience.”
Keep up with the buggy’s whereabouts and launch on it’s Facebook page.

Looks awesome 🙂 Love the food names.
Well they certainly know how to differentiate themselves in a crowded market, so good for them. However, “Dirty Sanchez” might not be the most appetizing name for a dish…I’m just sayin’.
What a great different way to serve up tacos from a food truck. I always enjoyed the three stooges as a kid, who ever would have thunk the only time i would watch them as an adult is while waiting for a Taco on the Beach. Let us know where you are posting up!
Stomach cramps. Nausea. And best of all diahrrea. Dirty Sanchez and chipotle. Chicken. Never again.
