Tacos Unite: Support La Chingona Taco Food Truck
Donation protected
Owner Adriana Lemus opened her roadside taco stand in 2019, to serve the mountain community of Topanga Canyon with organic, gluten-free food. Born in the Guatemalan jungle in the northernmost region of Petén, Lemus moved to Topanga in 1999. She took on many food-related jobs, working at Pedaler’s Fork, Cafe Mimosa, Waterlily, Topanga Table, and behind the deli counter at Topanga General Store. For more than 20 years, Lemus has cooked privately for families in Topanga. She now specializes in catered parties and events featuring organic Guatamalan, Mexican & Latin dishes, with vegan, vegetarian, gluten and dairy-free options. Her tortilleras make fresh, handmade tortillas on site, while her crew of local youth serve up dishes, drinks, desserts, and toppings. Due to unfortunate circumstances, La Chingona can no longer operate in the home style cooking stand she has been serving to our community for 4 years. Her only solution to continue sharing her taco medicine is to purchase a food truck due to limited access to commercial kitchens. Let's rally up and support our Familia, she truly adds so much to our community!
