Better Than a Ball Drop: New Year's Eve with The Taco Guys

Mushroom, left, and Maui fish tacos.

Where: In front of Bloodhound, 1145 Folsom (at Seventh St.), 10 p.m.-2 a.m.

Cost: All tacos $5 each

Why it's likely to be special: Restaurant chefs turned taqueros Justin Close and Jason Hoffman are steering their truck to Bloodhound to cater a private party that night, but they'll be "semi-open," as Hoffman puts it, to the public. If you're out partying ― at the Club Dragon gay-guy bash next door at Club 8, say ― we reckon nothing will taste better
