Hey you, d'you like tacos? Well how'd y'like free tacos?

Super Taco, Melbourne's wondrous new blue and pink taco truck, has been on the road for two weeks now. The first few weeks are integral in the life of any food truck to iron out the kinks that inevitably come from cooking up gourmet food in a big ol’ truck. And with all the kinks smoothed, they’re ready to for the Super Taco launch which involves giving away a tonne of free tacos (yessssss).

To celebrate their winning attitude, Super Taco are giving away free tacos in Federation Square on Friday, September 25 from 12pm-2pm. Each punter can choose a couple of tacos from the menu, which includes a flathead fish taco with coriander and lime, fried chicken and cactus, beef brisket and peanut and, Edwards' personal fave, the four-mushroom taco sprinkled with Meredith Dairy goat’s cheese. Damn. Form an orderly line behind us, everyone. There will be no cutsies here on this sacred day of the free taco.

Maleik Edwards, the general manager over at Mr Burger, is the genius behind the project. He says the future of the ostentatious taco truck is as bright as its paint job. And they’ve absolutely nailed the brand ethos, which could be summarised in one word: irreverent. “When it comes to Mexican food people tend to take it so seriously,” says Edwards. “We think that it should be fun, so heck, why not just give them away? Our accountant is probably spitting his coffee out, but if the worst thing that happens is that people walk away with a delicious taco in their hands, well that’s OK. We’re making Mexican food out of a big colourful truck, so there’s no need to be so serious."

Catch Super Taco at Federation Square on Friday, September 25 from 12-2pm.
