Finally I can put a picture of the taco stands (Michael H posted one earlier as I just saw, but in a different forum).
This guys will make tacos or tortas (with half baguettes). Tacos are mx$5 each. Tortas mx$12. They have Cochinita pibil or Relleno negro (chicken with a dark sauce, non spicy), try one of each at the begining to learn which one you prefer.

A couple of the stands have other things like chicken or steak but I didn't try them as my main goal was the cochinita pibil which is difficult to get at other places / hours with this good flavor. If you are worried that the guys grab the meat and tortillas with their bare hands, don't, this way is tastier than McDonalds and the guy that handles the money is a different one.

---------edit.-------------------
Now, I tried the other carts, some sell Milanesa (breaded beef), chicken, beef and one in speciall (he runs out of everything really early) has breaded shrimps, breaded fish and other seafoodl.
Price increased, all kind of tacos are now 7 pesos (Feb 2006)
