The Girlfriend and I made a foray to the Fuzzy's Tacos location at
Mockingbird and Abrams today.

Food is still their standard fare. The place was packed, and it was a lot of
families with kids present, which isn't the normal Fuzzy's crowd. But I also
suspect that its proximity to so many residential neighborhoods and its
distance from SMU had something to do with it, along with their fairly
inexpensive menu.

It's nice having this fairly close to the house. Service was typical Fuzzy's
fare, too.Good to know that a fairly different taco stand is branching out
and doing good business. I suspect the traffic in the door is substantially
higher than the Blockbuster that was their before this.

We'll be back, and not just because I have two substantial stacks of their
logo cups in the cabinet. (Bring one of their cups and drinks are
substantially cheaper)

It's also nice to see something that started in Ft. Worth crossing to Dallas
for a change.

I have not been to Fuzzy's, but the youngsters I know sneer at it
(apparently, "authentic" tacos are somewhat of a fad with the twenty-
thirty-something set right now). Their preferred taqueria is Torchy's
- which I tried, but found to be disappointing (the tortillas were
soggy).

For tacos, I go to El Paisa on Sandy Lake at I-35E. DAMN fine.

Fuzzy's is known for their fish tacos, and yeah, they're not authentic.
Still quite good, though.

The one in Denton was always packed during school, though. I sometimes
wonder how much this is because of the tacos and how much is because of the
better quality draugh beer selection. Since I don't do beer, for me it's the
tacos.

Authentic is a tricky word with Tacos. I've heard varying opinions on what
an "Authentic" taco is from lots of Americans. My sister-in-law, who is from
Mexico, tends to say that it depends on what part of Mexico you're from as
to what authentic is.

But yeah, Fuzzy's isn't going to win the authentic taco prize by using feta.
They're still quite tasty, though.
