All the food is prepared to order by the owners - whose recipes are pure old fashioned Dallas style Tex-Mex. But why am I telling you this? I hate it when my favorite places are "discovered". Well, litte to worry, they're located in Oak Cliff and not open for dinner, so how often will the trend setters be headed south of the Big Ditch for lunch....

Very solid breakfast. Also, the chicken and cheese empanadas at Espumoso are worth the trip back when they're open. Wow. El Jordan’s the best. Very solid breakfast.
