Yeah, my local Taqueria I can get a plate of five fully loaded tacos (like it's just heaping the meat) for $25 and that includes tip and drink and I always get the upcharged Lengua or Cabesa. If I stuck with the normal meat, it'd be like $20 with tip and drink.
And five of those babies leaves me stuffed.
They serve a nine dollar burrito that would make Chipotle hand it's head in shame.
It sounds like that because that would be actually rather in the expensive side here in Mexico (unless is some hipster taqueria in a fancy neighborhood in Mexico City).
Here I can get a meat monstrosity that could feed two regular folks for like 7USD in my local popular taqueria. “Tacos de cabeza” rarely go up more than 1USD per taco (but they are rather small). The most expensive tacos are the asada ones (those can be from 2-4USD per taco) and that because beef got crazy expensive lately.
