According to whatever amalgamation our daily paper and dfw.com have created, The Original is getting a renovation and will now be less dark. Anybody been yet? Rumor has it, the Roosevelt is still there but new things are being added as well. Anticipation is high. Hopefully it doesn't look like a Mi Cocina now.
New Breakfast Options
Follwing the trend of others opening for breakfast, La Familia is now open for breakfast on the weekends. Their website isn't updated but look for the flyers with the egg on it when you walk in. Also, my friends who are relatives of Sarah Palin introduced me to the flautas here. I'm not normally a big flauta fan, but if you get chicken in flour tortillas, you'll probably track me down just to marry me. Seriously. They're gooder than you can imagine.
Yep. Gooder.
No More Downtown Hot Dogs
In some sad news, the food truck push has killed the food cart business in Fort Worth. The Star-Telegram has breaking news regarding Luwana Carver's hot dog stands which are seen outside City Hall and in the Tarrant County Adminitration Building. Because of increased competition and onerous city regulations, she's shutting down her stand. No new carts will be coming to downtown yet, but we'll keep you updated. The Fort Worth Hole In The Wall Downtown Bureau Chief is working feverishly to find new information.
Finally, a real food reviewer, Eat This Fort Worth, is reporting that Salsa Limon is giving out free breakfast through September 5th. They're located across the street from Fuzzy's on Berry. Notice to all TCU freshman, these tacos will not contribute to the freshman 15. That's a myth created by Hallmark.
