El Zason's of New Braunfels


Cheese makes everything better.  I often have cheese added to my Tex-Mex breakfasts.



El Zason's Tapatio is a little hole in the wall on Texas 46 just east of I-35 in New Braunfels.  Great place for reasonably-price and tasty Tex-Mex food.  The portions there are large.  You will not leave this place feeling hungry.



Country & Egg:


Country sausage is scrambled in with eggs and served with refried beans and potatoes.  I had cheese loaded on everything.  Look at their potatoes ... pan fried until brown.  Not that white anemic look to potatoes in other Tex-Mex restaurants.



Chorizo and Egg and Cheese Burito:


A large grilled flour tortilla is filled with pan fried chorizo sausage and egg.  I had the cheesy center added to the wrap.  The photo doesn't do justice to the size.  Chorizo, egg, and cheese is my Tex-Mex favorite.



Mancanchada & Eggs:


This is dish which varies in heat from one restaurant to another.  Note: the hot sauce is on the beans and not the mancanchada.  Taste your food before adding the sauce.  Mancanchada is dried beef, tomato, and jalapeno peppers cooked into egg.  Note: there is not much egg in this mixture.  It's mostly beef and jalapenos.  This is one of my second favorite Tex-Mex dishes.



Three Tacos for $3.50:


You can have any two-ingredient tacos for $3.50.  Great deal for great tacos.  Above are from left to right, bacon-egg taco, chorizo-egg taco, and bean-cheese taco.  Yes, the egg counts as an ingredient.

Please excuse some of the photos.  The collecting of photos for this post spanned from my old phone (no longer manufactured  to my Apple i-Phone 6.  The i-Phone takes better photos than most cameras that I have owned.
