Long Beach Island, NJ: El Swell Taqueria

After driving down to Long Beach Island for a weekend of sun, sand, and fun my girlfriend and I were hungry for a quick bite to eat. A quick search on my phone pulled up El Swell Taqueria, the spot was nearby, had good ratings, and sounded perfect for […]

Canton: On the Border
