Anyone know where to get one or two of those warming towers they use? My cousin moved to TN, and he wants to buy a couple of them. I have no idea where to look besides Ace Mart and Restaurant Supply. TIA

Perhaps in the burned out rubble at Mason and Kingsland in Katy.

Thinking way outside the box here...have you considered asking El Tiempo where they acquired theirs?

I have. Manager told me gets them from a market in Mexico. I talked him into selling me one but he didn't sound like he wanted to do that regularly. Doesn't hurt to ask.

Thanks, ChiliBeans. Quite honestly, I figured that was the case, and I don't really intend to do much leg work on this.

Critic, your name is on point. You come watch my kids, and I'll go to El Tiempo for extended research. I've been meaning to spend a few hours inspecting the glass at the bottom of their platinum margs. Cool?

It's late morning and this thread has not devolved into:
- Filet vs skirt steak fajita meat
- Overpriced "upscale" Mexican food
- General El Tiempo vs Lupe Tortilla debate
- Best playground area at an area Mexican food joint
- Being too scared to try out Mexican food joints on Long Point
- Best breakfast tacos in Houston

Speaking of El Tiempo, I guess their location on 45S that never opened is just going to sit there forever?

Chavez on Gessner is the tits. Too bad the game room that was next door closed down.

Quote:

Attorney Tony Buzbee tells the Chronicle that the disputed payments stem from El Tiempo's inability to complete construction on time or on budget. His clients intend to hold El Tiempo to its agreement, which calls for up to 18 locations.

"El Tiempo is just trying to get out of the binding contract they have with my clients," Buzbee adds. "My clients intend to honor the agreement and complete the restaurant, and offer the public the same great service, atmosphere and food they have come to expect from El Tiempo."
Big Tony is involved in that.

What about the 290 El Tiempo? Is there a target date for that?

No offense, but what's the relevance of this? Why would he need a couple of these in Tennessee and not here or wherever it was he lived previously? Just curious.

There is no debate. Lupe is ass.


I love Lupes, and they don't spontaneously combust.

Still need to find a place on the west side that can make a killer breakfast burrito.

I still believe there has to be a way to find them if we knew the proper term and spelling, but I haven't had any luck.

You start your post with, "No offense, but..." so you are clearly trying to cause a offense. You contradict your first statement by simply saying "but" after it.

To satisfy your curiosity, I would assume he wouldn't need them living in Houston because he could simply drive to the El Tiempo and eat. However, he is not in Houston. He is in Tennesee, and it's true. He is my cousin.

I stand by my question, and I appreciate the honest answers I've received. I knew there'd be at least one Ag that had made an attempt at these things.

No offense, but shame on whoever would blue star your post.

If I find out anymore, I'll be sure to share, Chili.

I asked here at work and what you're looking for is called an "anafre", or portable stove. Your best bet is a flea market or some place like Reyes Produce next to Canino Market.

Yeah, can also try searching "brasero de mesa" for contraptions that serve a similar purpose.

No luck finding anything identical online to what they use at Tiempo.

Thanks for the LoPo Mexican suggestions. I'll have to check some of them out. At least something good came from this thread.

While not on LoPo a personal favorite for breakfast tacos in the Dirty Branch is Taqueria Cancun at Gessner and Hammerly. They're freaking delicious and cheap.
