PBA Resumes the West Coast College Tour as a Regular Part of Its School Experience
Anyone that’s known me any length of time knows I am a big fan of Mexican food. It’s a family trait: when my parents were still in their traveling years and would visit me from Oregon once or twice annually, they typically set about finding every Mexican restaurant they could, then complained it didn’t compare to the Mexican fare they could get back home. “Let’s go for lau lau, Mom,” I replied.
So when Dean of Students Liane Viloria, seven PBA sophomores and juniors and I landed at the Long Beach Airport for the first leg of the California College Tour the day after the wrap of our 20th Annual Festival, I had my eyes peeled for the taquería closest to the home we’d rented for our first week in southern California.
Fullerton, CA did not disappoint. After depositing the students and Mrs. Viloria back home to enjoy their midnight Popeye’s dinner, I made a quick jaunt for the flashing lights and long line outside Tacos las de Allison, the first of several burritos I enjoyed while in California.
