Not a torta.

Yet. The Manteca relief valve on her ring finger isn't covered up.

The Wife grew up there, her parents and family are still there, Teacher Wife '82 pretty much did (her relatives settled New Braunfels), and we lived in Uvalde for 14 years. SA is not bad at all for a big city.

Now do Corpus.

Smells like Tortas in here

Had dinner at the Arby's on Evan's road. Average. The one in the Seguin Pilot is much better.

That one has sucked forever. You could have had Whataburger. Taco Palenque is just a cut through the Home Depot parking lot. Freebirds is just on the other side of 281 and chic FIL an and Jersey Mikes. Golden Chick is just up 281. If you are looking for some overpriced gourmet donuts, Parlor Donuts is just across from Johnson HS.

What can I say, I was an Arby's dude in an Arby's mood. Nothing else would cut it but a beef and cheddar (with onions), curly fries, and Dr Pepper

But...On the island. It's a different world here.

I got to live in San Antonio for a while for my first job. I loved it. It is by far my favorite city and the only metro I'd ever consider living in. It's a Mexican city that happens to be in Texas.

The drivers are awful, tortas are real. Expect to get some sort of spanglish fluency in short order.

The Good:

Food. My God the food is so good.
1. Taqueria Datapoint (on De Zavala). I might dox myself to people on here because I make loving this place my entire personality. When I visit my friends over a weekend, we go at least 3 times. It is the ultimate hole in the wall, soccer on a tiny tv mexican place. If you go around lunchtime you'll see tons of landscape crew rigs parked around eating there.
--------
Distant 2nd: Mama Margies - like a Mexican waffle house. Incredible drunk food.
3. Texas Tacos - just went there yesterday. I'll post a picture of my enchiladas when I am near my phone.

Charthouse on top of the tower of americas sucks as a restaurant, go there for drinks. I actually got engaged up there. Great views of the city.

KSAT - They have a GREAT airport. Extremely easy to navigate and connections everywhere, with a lot of directs with Southwest.

There is an extremely cool blues / rock n roll / jazz club I used to haunt called Luna. It was an incredible, initmate live music place with relatively cheap drinks.

Cowboys Dancehall was also on my list, they had a killer live band and a big dancefloor.

Boerne is close enough to commute, and IMO is the perfect community. If I weren't living where I am now, I'd move to Boerne tomorrow.

Lost Maples. Just go. Camp and look at the Milky Way. I just got back from there this past weekend and it was incredible.

The Bad:
- 1604 is a hellhole filled with agony and folks selling their souls just to get one lane moving.
- If you drive any kind of upmarket offroad truck (raptor, trx, etc) or modified it's not a question of if but when it'll be stolen. There's a high profile former cop and MARSOC YT creator who had his TRX stolen out of his driveway.
- It's HOT.
- utsa. you'll never meet a group of people more proud of going to a commuter school.

are all of the taqueria datapoints that good? They're opening a new one like a mile or 2 from here

Also where is the enchilada pic

I'd imagine it's gonna be delicious. Very much worth a try

Good for you both. Take her to Bohanan's for a memorable steak dinner.
