We learned in our media classes that advertising may get you to try a product or a place that first…read moretime, but if the product of the place does not live up to the expectations created by the ad, there won't be a return visit or purchase. Advertising has its place. I'm always dubious of posts that I see from so-called influencers on social media. Especially when I view someone with 20 sets of false eyelashes and enough food for ten delivered to the table and lots of oohs and ahhs. But I'm always willing to check out a new place and make my own decision because it's a fun hobby of mine. And I'm retired and I have plenty of time. Now I've been traveling in Mexico for most of my life because of family and friends that I have there, and I have a real soft spot for the cuisine of Mexico, whether from the seven regions that culinary historians talk about; or the sub regions such as our beloved Tex-Mex, which I love. And so today brings me to this little place up on Airline Drive that I heard about from a so-called influencer on Instagram. Los Mendoza Mexican Restaurant. I'm here in the morning and it's a breakfast all day option kind of place. I get a fruit smoothie (Ilusión) and a tecolota, their riff on a chilaquiles sandwich. The smoothie is excellent and I would come back just for it. They offer an option with or without sugar. A no charge, courtesy consommé with potatoes and fideo arrives. Delicious. As was the excellent sandwich. See photos. Beef birria ramen; tacos ahogados; caldo de albondigas; patitas de puerco en salsa roja; beef short ribs... how is it that I am just discovering this place? I love, cruising down Airline, Irvington, and Fulton, as there are so many places to choose from a Mexican culinary heritage. I want to spend a year, just trying all of the different places.

Limpio pues un %70. Tres vendedores ambulantes llegaron a mi mesa. El precio a pagar por dos órdenes de chilaquiles con carne y unos birrias café y un jugo $75+ propina. Yo no vuelvo muchas gracias. En resumen el área lo dice todo.

Yum, yum, yum! I can't get enough of this hidden gem. Las Tortas Perronas, which translates to "Big…read moreOl' Sandwiches," is tucked into a strip center and is easy to access. Every visit starts with a smile from the cashier, whose friendly service keeps me coming back. She always makes sure my order stays upright in the bag as I eagerly head back to the office for lunch. My go-to order, and honestly the only sandwich I ever get, is the Super Cubana. At around $12, it's worth every penny. Made to order with fresh ingredients and perfectly toasted bread, it's a sandwich that never disappoints. If you're in the Northside Village area and craving a hearty, flavorful sandwich, Torta Perrona is well worth a visit.

We ordered the beef fajita mini taquitos, beef fajita Gordita, and chicharrón tacos. Each plate proved to be filling on their own, so we happily took home the leftovers. My beef fajita plates were a little dry, and I was disappointed there wasn't any crema inside the gordita, but overall the plates were delightful and flavorful. I didn't try the chicharrón tacos, but the meats weren't crispy like we were expecting (which I'm not sure if they're supposed to be). Overall affordable meal with a lot of bang for our buck!

The taqueria cart / truck scene in Houston is among the city's most ubiquitous food options, which…read moremight be why Taqueria Tacambaro is both popular and overlooked at the same time. Located primarily near the parking lot of the Houston Farmer's Market, they're a solid destination for street side Mexican without the pretension. Tacos isn't the the only barometer, but it's a way to start. Admittedly I'm not a huge fan of the shredded lettuce with tacos (#1) but the meats are almost always the star of the show. I'm pleased to see that they utilize a number of beef cuts from the Houston-centric fajita (#2), asada, and even bistec. The latter was a tad saltier than I would have liked, which was really more of a cecina (salted). I don't have high opinions on the chicken (pollo) and pork (pastor), which I find to be some of the most boring choices on the menu. What Tacambaro really excels at is the rest of the parts: tripa (tripe), lengua (tongue), chicharron (rinds), buche (belly) and mollejas (sweetbreads). The latter was the real surprise and I can see why so many locals would want to come here for it. The mollejas are crispy, delightful, and full of flavor. With their tortillas and a little kick of the salsa, I can see how along with chicharron and lengua can become a specialty place in a hurry. It's not all rosas in this cart. Sometimes they're a bit in a rush and a lot of times the cart isn't actually around during its open hours. While it's supposedly open till 3pm, I've seen it gone just after lunch time. Even when it it is open, some of those choices are sold out in addition to some of the most expensive. Tacos are not the end-all, but I do appreciate their versatility with creating tortas, gorditas, flautas, and quesadillas. It's a cash only business to my knowledge and there are ATMs in the market, as well as places to sit. I would always make the effort to patronize Tacambaro, and hope any more do. __________ (#1) Tacos dorado? Fine. Maiz taco that's barely grilled? Eh. (#2) Native Houstonian, please explain why "fajitas" are on every taco truck please. I beg of you.
