This pretty much sums up how I feel when visiting the RGV. I consider South Texas home. I attended HS there and the majority of my childhood memories stem from there.
I don't visit often, but when I do, it's UNLIMITED tacos, tostadas and Mexican food.
Here are my top 5 favorite must-haves!
Breakfast Tacos: all of them are delicious & big enough to share. This one I ordered has egg, potatoe, bacon, cheese & a side of refried beans.
This monster taco was so unforgettable, I decided to post this picture too. By the way, I shared this taco with my sister! IT WAS ENOUGH for both of us!
ELOTE: white corn with butter, mayonnaise, lemon juice, cheese and garnished with chile on top!
I have yet to find a place in Houston that serves elote like this.
If you know of a place...let me know!
Tacos, tacos, and more tacos!! There's different variations (fajita, trompo, bistek, etc.). While in the RGV...I get to eat all the variations!!...not on the same day though. Lol!
Tostadas!! Another of my favorite eats! Check out these fried tortillas with beans, lettuce, tomatoes, avocado & topped with sour cream.
When in the RGV...It's a MUST to visit South Padre Island! And after a good swim at the beach, you've made enough room for peel & eat gulf shrimp. Of course I always ask for extra lime & HOT sauce!
So here you have it!...My top 5 eats while in South Texas! I ate just enough to hold me over until next time!!
If you have a trip planned, enjoy your eats!!
