Nothing I love more than a good breakfast taco. Oh wait, we're talking about food? Well then, never mind.

serves nopales and eggs on house-made corn tortillas.

I think a trip to Austin is in order.

There is no such thing as God.

But if there IS...breakfast tacos (along with beer, fried chicken, and buffalo wings) are proof that he loves us and wants us to be happy and full.

Breakfast food is entirely arbitrary.

Intrigued by the concept.

/ chorizo e papas FTW

I prefer the meat missile omelet at Steak n' Egg in Tenleytown.

Eggs don't agree with me. It is my curse, my cross to bear, my bete noir, my'll shut up now.

Breakfast tacos are just a poor man's breakfast burrito.

Are they hip? Is it rad?

All fine and dandy, but do they use salt (gasp) in the preparation of them?

I believe the word subby was looking for was "dominion" Though it's still a very awkward turn of phrase. "Deliciousousness" is a thing to achieve, not rule over or conquer. I suppose it could be, but it's quite a contortion.

And yeah, breakfast tacos rule... sausage, eggs, and cheese without being weighted down by all the dry heaviness of a biscuit.

The breakfast burrito is the breakfast equivalent of the KFC Famous Bowl: it's a failure pile wrapped in a soggy tortilla of sadness.


Please... this is the most pointless and ridiculous argument ever.

This...

...ain't nothin' but a breakfast burrito that someone didn't finish rolling.

Tacos can't hold everything together. The breakfast burrito is the superior choice.

trancemission: After reading the article, I fail to see how these are different from breakfast burritos, which have been around forever and probably were not invented in Austin.

People in Austin, incapable of creating anything on their own, often slightly modify something everyone already likes and dub it an Austin original.

oldass31: Austinite here saying that if you're in Austin and have a craving for breakfast tacos, you can't go wrong with "Juan in a Million" or "Mi Madre's".

So you're saying we should go to Tu Madre's for a good taco?

sboyle1020: Go on...

I can't believe he ate the whole thread.

GnuUzir - ShawnDoc: Breakfast tacos are just a poor man's breakfast burrito.

The only difference is corn or flour tortillas, I don't see the pinnacle here...


Wait... people make them with hard-shell corn tortillas?

In that case, I must side with the burrito.

It would appear that they are almost always made with flour tortillas.

GIS for breakfast taco (new window)

Even according to this homesick Texan (new window) who says "a breakfast taco is a regular 8-inch flour tortilla (almost always flour, but sometimes you see soft corn)".
