A taco, a tostada and a burrito are what’s for lunch Thursday at The Taco Shop in Moses Lake. The little restaurant still serves the same things it did 45 years ago.

The Taco Shop has become a fixture in Moses Lake

MOSES LAKE — In Moses Lake on June 1, 1977, Columbia Basin Machine defeated Zip Trucking in Little League, Japan Airlines held a model airplane contest for kids and new potatoes were 10 cents a pound at Thriftway. While “Star Wars” was breaking box office records across the country, Lake Theater was still showing “King Kong” from the year before. Oh, and a little taco stand opened up downtown near the swimming pool.
