A TASTE of Mexico landed in Redditch as the Kingfisher Shopping Centre welcomed a brand new addition to its food offering - El Taco Loco.

El Taco Loco, which was officially opened last Saturday by Redditch mayor Pattie Hill, offers diners a range of traditional street food dishes including burritos, tacos, quesadillas and nachos, all within a bright, lively and authentic Mexican environment.

Saturday’s grand opening saw the mayor kick off proceedings and open the restaurant, while shoppers were treated to a host of treats including food samples, face painting and balloon modelling.

Ken Williams, the Kingfisher Shopping Centre’s general manager, said: “It’s fantastic news that El Taco Loco has chosen to open its next restaurant here in Redditch, it is a really exciting brand and a welcome addition to the centre."
