What is a taco del gaujolota? When I look up “guajolota” in Wikipedia, it seems to refer to a torta (and also implies that the torta can have a variety of filling).
And why do I ask at all? I was driving by Santa Monica Blvd. and Broxton Brockton in West LA, and I saw a stand (in the same strip mall that houses Monte Alban) that says it has “Tacos del Guajolotas” (IIRC, and it’s not a word I was knew b/f) and puerco and cabeza. Hmmm…
Brockton?
And good intel. I’ll need to check this out.
Isn’t guajolote a word for turkey? Like Pavo.
Guess I could look it up lol
Apparently yes. BUT it also refers to a street food (Guajolota - Wikipedia).
And now that I’ve re-read the Wikipedia entry, it’s apparently a tamal served as a sandwich. So I guess this vendor is serving a tamal wrapped by a tortilla??? Sounds a little weird. May try it soon.
Hmmm. Except in your context they are specifically saying it’s a taco, as opposed to just calling it “guajolote”.
What do I know? Adding to my list. LOL
We need @Dommy !!!
Edit: *sorry I responded before reading your full reply.
My bet is they mean guajolote.
Entirely possible. But the meaning doesn’t change, no (since they are feminine/masculine of the same word)?
I believe it’s a masculine noun, like pavo and pollo. I.e it means turkey, not male turkey.
