Supporting Member texscottyd Posted September 24, 2017 Supporting Member Share Posted September 24, 2017 Since the FJ is the perfect vehicle to track down great food at out-of-the way locations, I thought it was worth a thread for sharing some road food highlights. What have you got? I'll start with amazing bacon/egg/cheese breakfast tacos, with hot verde salsa. From MaRita's roadside taco trailer just south of Sweeny, Texas. Great mid-ride breakfast break...

I lived in Corpus Christie about 12 years ago. A few mini marts around town had made-to-order breakfast tacos/burritos like you have pictured. A couple of ladies behind the bar, one cooking and a few taking and filling orders with customers lined up around the store. And they had fresh made, REAL tortillas!! Anyone who has had REAL tortillas knows what I am talking about. They were the best! I have never found anything as good since. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outstanding breakfast tacos are a regional delicacy along the Texas Gulf Coast, and you’re absolutely right that real fresh-made tortillas make or break the deal. The best places are often as you described, tucked away in gas stations and mini marts, family run, and often only open from 4:00 am to 9:00 am.

Premium Member keithu Posted September 29, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted September 29, 2017 Fresh from the oven cinnamon roll in Winthrop, Washington. I think we should get bonus points if the road food pic includes your FJ/Tracer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member upshift Posted October 29, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted October 29, 2017 Not sure this totally fits the category, as I didn't actually take a photo of my delicious halibut chowder, but I highly recommend stopping in at the Oyster Bar off you happen to be riding the infamous Chuckanut Drive in WA. Pretty tasty scenery to go along with the high-quality food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
