So we're at Mi Madre's on East Manor Road and we've been told this is one of the best places to get breakfast tacos in Austin and we're going to go and check it out and see for ourselves. It's a family owned business, all our recipes we make everything fresh everyday and we have a family atmosphere who's here. We do make our own beans, they're vegetarian, our rice is also vegetarian and everything else is homemade. My favorite taco, actually it is a potato, egg, bacon and cheese, those are awesome, they're the bestsellers and also the new ones that we have is the Avowaldo and it comes with grilled onions and avocado, something new and something that a lot of places don't have and it's very fresh and good. How is it? It's good! Alright so here we go, your Miga's taco and your Don Juan, our famous Don Juan taco. The Don Juan, it's a good deal it's $3.25 for a taco and you get potatoes, bacon, egg and cheese and you can make like three or four tacos, that's a good deal right there. The Miga's taco, well that's just a combination like onions, tomatoes, tortilla chips, eggs, cheese. The Don Juan, it's a good hangover, if you go partying and all that, you come and get one of those and it hits the spot real nice. Partying is always a good reason in life and just in anybody's life, right? So anything else, all good? That's it, all good, thank you. Alright, enjoy! Hi, how you doing? I'm good, how are you? Excellent, welcome to Curra! I want breakfast, I want breakfast tacos, what do you recommend? Well there's a lot of great things here, the one that's really popular is the Huevo Sucio, I think we're one of the few restaurants that have Mole on the menu all the time, so it comes smothered over your eggs of your choice and of course with rice. If you're really hungry, that hungry ranchero is really nice of course, basically like two eggs and it comes on top of Carne Guisada and served with these homemade tamales and they're made right behind that wall right there, it's really fantastic and I mean there so many good things. What's the best breakfast taco? Best breakfast taco, you know well since we're in South Austin we have a huge vegetarian community and so we do have Chorizo con Huevos. But we do actually have homemade vegetarian Chorizo that we make in house, it's fantastic and our vegetarian members just love it, it's really good. That sounds great I'll take that. Sounds good, I'll be right back. Okay thanks! Spicy after taste, big pieces of bacon, so these are the fiery tortillas, red corn tortillas, very hot. I was only here a couple of times and like the third time I came in my previous waiter remembered me, remembered where I wanted to sit, remembered what I ordered. It's delicious!
