On this day, I decided to take my daily adventure to Fellsmere, a quaint little town just west of Sebastian. For fellow Brevardians, it is a diamond in the rough with its restaurants, boat tours, history, and festivals. Definitely go there during The Fellsmere Frog Leg Festival and Fellsmere Day.
Over the past decade, there has been an influx of Mexican culture in the area sprouting up a number of Mexican businesses. This is especially true for groceries and food. Big C's Produce is one of those businesses that does both. Think of it as a starter Thrifty Produce. The grocery part of the business has the necessities needed plus the addition of authentic Mexican art, pottery, jewelry, and clothing. The restaurant part is like a food truck, similar to La Preferida up in Eau Gallie.
However, the one part of Big C's I can personally review more so ever is the food. I ordered the enchilada especial and a Jamaica drink (consists of dried hibiscus flowers, water, and sugar). The food was average compared to many other Mexican cuisine I had here in Brevard County. I must stress that doesn't mean it is bad. It was well-prepped and delicious. But if you were to put Big C's food next to the food of other Mexican restaurants that would also be rated as average, in general, most won't be able to tell much difference.
Nevertheless, if I am ever in Fellsmere and I am craving Mexican food, I won't hesitate to get it from Big C's Produce if I am passing by. Also on a sidenote, the food averages between $10 and $20. Not bad given the fact the prices on all fast casual, casual, and even fast food restaurants have gone up. read more
