Well, if you haven't heard, bigYELLOWbowl is now the hottest food blog in Midland, TX. In fact, it may be the only food blog in Midland, TX! Contrary to perception, there is more to eat out here than Tex-Mex. I got to explore a couple of places this past weekend and look forward to all there is to eat around town...
Several people had recommended El Burrito, especially for breakfast, so I gave it a shot on Friday. I will start out by saying: don't go here for the coffee. It's your basic bad diner variety, but other than that: the food is delicious! The chilaquiles were amazing and honestly enough for two people. The surprise was the cheesy potatoes that came on the side--odd, but very yummy.
Next door to El Burrito is Tony's Bakery where we picked up a couple of sugar cookies and were offered three different varieties of Danish, hot from the oven. If I hadn't been stuffed full of chilaquiles, I definitely would ha e ordered one because they smelled amazing.
I also got to try Jersey Girl Pizza in Odessa, which had also been recommended by a variety of people. They have a wonderful variety of toppings and the crust was superb, but there was a little too much cheese for it to have that true New York-style taste. Delicious nonetheless. In fact, a couple of leftover slices in the fridge will probably be lunch!
There is always more to eat! And I'll be sure and tell you all about it...
