"O'Tacos, which has a grand total of 400+ locations and deems itself the "FRENCH TACOS BOSS" on social media, feels kind of like what Taco Bell is to Mexican food in the US...but, like, if we strayed even further from god's light and decided chicken nuggets and cheddar cheese were as quintessential to a burrito as beans and rice. I perused their menu, which consists of five different Tacos, but TBH, they lost as soon as I saw Chicken Cordon Bleu and goat cheese."
"On their website, O'Tacos calls themself "the inventor of and market leader in 'French tacos', a fusion cuisine concept: the Mexican classics with a French twist." Not only is the "Mexican classics" bit of this rather perplexing (I am still not seeing how we got here from tacos, TBH!), but the title of "inventor" also seems largely up for debate."
French tacos have become a viral fast-food phenomenon, especially on social media platforms like TikTok. O'Tacos is a major French chain with over 400 locations that markets itself as the "FRENCH TACOS BOSS" and offers items such as Chicken Cordon Bleu, goat cheese, and build-your-own options including beef sausage, Thai chili sauce, and gherkins. The format blends tortilla wraps with unexpected French or fast-food ingredients like fries and cheddar. The likely origins trace to 2000s "snacks" shops in Lyon suburbs run by chefs of North African descent, rather than a single inventor.
