Reid's Orchard and Mexican food truck make for a great day in July

Saturday the family took a little trip to Reid's Orchard in Otrana, Pa.  Being on a mountain it was almost 10 degrees cooler and it felt amazing.  Free music, a great view of the valley and orchard just added to the day.  I would highly recommend going one weekend.  It is a great evening or afternoon getaway for couples and families.  Great area for kids to run around and play ball or just relax with their friends.  Go for a nice walk through the orchard in between sets from the band or sit under the shade and enjoy some wine or hard cider with friends.  The band yesterday was the awesome cover band Schizophonic http://www.schizophonicband.com/ .  They take requests along with their great play list of 70s and 80s music.  The food truck was https://www.facebook.com/TacoTrapHouse/.  I had the tongue torta.  Sort of like a Cuban pressed sandwich but with garnishes such as avocado,chili pepper (usually poblano or jalapeno) tomato and onion are common. It is very popular throughout Mexica and is also available anywhere with a large number of Mexican immigrants.  We also shared an order of nachos.  They were covered in some of the same garnishes as the torta as well as cheese.  Both amazing dishes.  We took a friend with us and he has the spicy pork torta and said it was just as good as mine.  I just need to find the next location they will be so I can try a few more things on their menu.  If I find out where they will be I will be sure to let you all know.  God bless, thanks for reading and see you at the table.
