Ever hear of ricos?

[wekick]

We were on the road and stopped at a taqueria. I picked up their card and when looking at it later noticed they have Ricos-Tacos-Tortas. Tacos and tortas I know but what are Ricos?

I haven't a clue, but I am curious now. I hope someone else knows.

Rico(s) means delicious, rich, tasty. Ricos tacos and tortas=delicious, tasty tacos and tortas.(nt)

I've heard it used as a contraction of Puerto Rico. Could it be from there?

 

[mistral]

Around here it is used in a lot ot the Taqueria signs: Tasty Tacos Here! (nt)

 

[mistral]

sorry, forgot to add- these are Mexican Taquerias. (nt)

Ricos is in lots of taqueria names here abouts. Something like this . . .
