Utah-based taco chain, "The Taco Maker" becoming worldwide hit
On a warm Monday night, the predinner procession at The Taco Maker http://www.tacomaker.com/ is steady.
A couple of families dine together, sharing laughs along with their meal. A trio of co-workers munches quickly on Mexican platters bigger than their heads before returning to their jobs. Several parents and grandparents order to-go items, often with a youngster in tow hoping to finish off an ice cream before it melts.
Taco Maker employees try to prepare a customer’s food in less than 90 seconds, because they know people are in a hurry.
But few likely realize that the restaurant chain they frequent is based nearby. The worldwide corporate headquarters of the 148-restaurant franchise chain — which has nearly 100 stores in Puerto Rico — is in Ogden.
‘‘The biggest question a lot of people have is, how did a Mexican food place get in Ogden, Utah?’’ said Steven M. Krolak, vice president of franchise development.
But the answer is simple.

‘‘Well, this is our hometown,’’ Krolak said. ‘‘This is where we live.’’
