Taco Tuesday in Tucson: Thai Tacos at Senae Thai Bistro

Jan 19, 20211 min read

“Taco Tuesday in Tucson” is a column where we explore the unique tacos stands throughout Tucson… on Tuesdays.

When you dream about Taco Tuesday, and all of the wonderful options available around the city, you don’t typically think of Thai Tacos.

However, start thinkin’ about it because it’s not a dream. Senae Thai Bistro just revealed it’s Thai Tacos and gee whiz, do they look delicious.

The downtown restaurant, which was recently awarded the Thai SELECT USA designation by the Thai Trade Center North America, will be offering the new tacos for takeout only on Tuesday, January 19 and perhaps future Tuesdays to come.

Each taco is $7 each and you’ve got a choice of protein — beef, chicken, or grilled tofu.

In-house dining is currently not an option but takeout and delivery is available from 4 – 9 p.m. — the perfect opportunity to enjoy these tasty treats at home.

Senae Thai Bistro is located at 63 E. Congress St. For more information, visit senaethai.com.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
