Honestly I didn't like it but only because I found out i don't like curry, I could tell it was a great meal but for someone that likes curry lol. It was clearly made well

Beef Tinga Tacos

Delicious, I’m a big taco fan but lettuce looked ugly for day 3. Well seasoned but wraps broke apart and made for a very messy meal. Wraps were well packaged but saran wrap melted to outer packaging.
