Looking over the menu and website for the food court in the new Outlet Mall in Simpsonville KY I’m pleasantly surprised at the Latin-Asian Kitchen called Taqueria Tsunami.
With a Tidal Wave of Flavors, Taqueria Tsunami is the only place you’ll savor the taste of the “East Meets the West”, in every bite. We offer a variety of menu items inspired by cultures around the globe like our Shrimp Tempura Taco, Avocado Cilantro Eggrolls and Saki Sangria.
While I openly hope for a Qdoba to be placed in the area, fresher food would crush the fast food stores in Shelbyville, I’m only hoping….
