Broke down and finally tried a "french taco" from O'Tacos, a french fast food joint that's rapidly expanding with more than 100 locations in France and internationally. As someone who loves mexican food, and who could eat tacos for every single meal and be content for the rest of my life, this is the confused mess I assumed it would be. It's completely edible, in a drunken college kid looking for something to eat at 1 a.m. kind of a way, but a taco it is not. There's nothing mexican about it, aside from the flour tortilla. You can get up to four meats, which include masala chicken, chicken nuggets, falafel, and merguez sausage, among others, to go along with the freezer bag french fries and a swiss cheese sauce that also go inside your pressed tortilla. You can then pick 2 sauces, including ketchup, mayo, curry, "samourei", harrissa, and many others. Finally you can top it off with several cheeses, meats, and other assorted goodies, including goat cheese, gouda, mozzarella, pastrami, mushrooms, etc. By top it off, I mean that literally. They take your pressed quesadilla-like taco and throw slices of cheese, etc. on there and then melt them down.
Next time I might try to make the worst possible combination just on a dare to myself. I'm thinking chicken nuggets with ketchup & mayo, topped with melted goat cheese and pastrami. Muy autentico!
