All of these pictures come from a half-mile stretch of my daily drive down South First to campus. If I want to buy tacos on my way to or from work, I have at least twenty options--all right on my route, with varying specialties and price levels. Interior Mexican, unabashed Tex-Mex, hipster taco trucks, you name it. And I would have the same number of choices if I were to drive down South Congress or South Lamar.
I don't take this bounty for granted: I fell in love with Mexican food as a kid living in Charleston where, at the time, there were two (2!) Mexican-style restaurants in the area. When we moved to Fort Worth, I remember pulling out the Star-Telegram's weekly Dining section and marveling at the pages and pages of listings and reviews under the heading "Mexican." But even Fort Worth can't compare to this. This is amazing.
