Zero affiliation with this place, we live in Cypress and I always pay attention to the Community Impact paper that comes in the mail every so often and pay attention to the new openings. I had seen some time back a Mexican meat market called Don Tomates was opening and finally had occasion to try it out.
If you head down Cypress-Rosehill like you are headed to 99, take a right where it intersects with Grant Rd, the place is just down the road after you make the right, it is a tiny place, chain link fence around the parking area, maybe 300-500 ft after you turn on the right, Their meat counter is small compared to La Michoacana, they have the red marinated fajitas you see elsewhere but they have these fajitas called "fajitas blancas" (white fajitas), they look like they have don't have much seasoning but they have been marinaded in something and are ready for the grill, on the advice of the butcher bought some, threw on grill when I got home, LEGIT! They have marinated and non-marinated short ribs cut just right for the grill, about 1/2" thick, bought non-marinaded seasoned with Montreal steak seasoning, pretty damn good!!!
On a side not, if you like tortas, most people mistakenly use bollilo bread to make them but the traditional bread used is called teleras, they have it there in the bread case.
Anyway, thought I'd pass it along, in case Cypress area Ags need a fajita fix and want to give this place a shot. If anybody else tries the fajitas blancas I'd like to know what you thought, I thought they were very good a different take from the red ones.
