ElCon

 


ElCon, El Conquistador, this evening where I was ambushed by a large crew of churchpersyns. What a lot of surprise fun! ElCon's notoriously TexMex and hasn't changed since the '90s or at least that's what it feels like, nice.

Cheers,

LSP

  1. It's hard to beat a good Mexican restaurant that's been there for a long time.

    Sometimes I miss going to the local really good Mex restaurant. But the whole 'planning for an ocean invasion' that's required to get Mrs. Andrew out of the house doesn't make it worthwhile. Though, hmmm, can do take out...

  2. Years ago, Mrs. and I overnighted in Hillsboro and ate Meskin in some little hole in the wall joint in a former Dairy Queen on the same side of I-35. The hotel clerk said it looks bad on the outside, but you'll love the food. She was right about both appearances and the food, some of the best we've ever ate. A few years later, I noticed they'd built a new building behind the old one but looking at mapping program, don't think it's the same place, think it's the one south of El Conquistador a little bit. I've slept since then, ya follow?

    Anyway, Mrs. and I are semi-planning on attending the big Texas Monthly barbecue weekend in Lockhart the first weekend in November. We might ambush you ourselves for luncheon on the way down if that might be agreeable.
