Tex Mex Is Actually More Important to Texans Than Barbecue | Eater

"Housed in a white cinderblock building with a green roof in McAllen, this family-run counter with a visible kitchen and drive-thru windows serves scratch-made, regionally rooted Tex‑Mex recipes passed down from the owner’s mother and grandmother (originally from near Monterrey). Standouts include soft-fried carne guisada tacos—dipped in oil but not crisp—topped with lettuce, tomato, yellow cheese and house hot sauce; the tortillas are pleasantly messy and deeply flavorful. The proprietor emphasizes continuity with family cooking but is fighting to keep the original location open amid a disputed alley access with a neighboring restaurant." - Meghan McCarron
