Roaring Dinner Dishes

Bocas Tacos Y Tequilas Serves Up Lion Tacos

You haven't eaten anything awesome until you've tried lion tacos. Bocas Tacos y Tequilas, a Mexican restaurant in Tucson, Arizona, is currently taking orders for their lion tacos to be served on February 16th.

Bocas Tacos y Tequilas hosts an exotic taco night every Wednesday where they serve up tacos made out of everything from elk to rattlesnake. Something tells me serving up tacos made out of Simbas should attract a lot more attention. Each lion taco will be sold for $9 with February 7th as the last day to put in the required pre-order.
