West Campus Taco Bell gettin’ crafty!
thanks to Chicago Fats for the pic

After a long 10 hour day at work, and nothing much to do this evening, I got the feeling I got to ramble… So I head down to where I used to dwell, Riverside area in South Austin. Thank god I just paid my car insurance, one thing about driving on the East Side, especially around Oltorf and Riverside is that folks drive like cock-asses. After dodging low riders and angry community college kids, I decide to go down memory lane and drive by my old misery pit, my old apartment complex in South Austin. Chevy Chase Downs, I actually picked the place because it was named after Chevy Chase, it had two pools and looked pretty depressing. Read the rest of this entry »

TacoBlob: Front Line reporter

It’s Wednesday. I’m pissed as usual, thinking about George Carlin today, he always points out “instead of T.G.I.F.” that we should say “H.S.I.O.W” – Holy Shit It’s Only Wednesday. It has been my mantra all day, it really feels like a Wednesday. After a miserable day at work, I knew it might be time to write a review for Taco Town, I write best when pissed, so all I needed to do now is get drunk and we’d have a review. After downing some old High Life that has aged (I found in our carport earlier in the week) I made my way towards ZuZu. It’s actually one of the closest taco joints to my house.

My last blog was on Taco Bell, so in keeping with the tradition of chains and fast food, I wanted to try this place out. Turns out it has pretty high regards in my circle of friends, even the TT staff has given this place some props. Since my last blog was on the dreaded Taco Bell, I figured I might be able to get away with getting some food to go once more. Read the rest of this entry »

this is the first in a series of reports from our resident taco blob, Chicago Fats.. The blob will be your man behind enemy lines, going boldy where no self-respecting taco lover should ever go.. the fast food joints..wish him luck and prepare to be disgusted and ashamed for him and his sidekick dog Taco Mutt.

Starring: TT Blob & Taco Mutt

Bonus: It’s 59 cent Taco Tuesdays! Taco Mutt is in LUCK!

Where the fuck do we start? Walked up to the local grocery store, I just maxed out the American Express on Heineken and the HEB bacteria infested rotisserie chickens just didn’t seem appealing to me tonight, so we headed on over to the local TB. Me and the Taco Mutt…. Taco Tuesday is her favorite day.

I walk up to the cashier knowing that I want the NEW! NEW! NEW! Cheesy Beefy Melt! Turns out the cashier can’t talk, in her whispering miserable voice she informed me she was trying to get management to let her go home sick, she thinks she has strep throat. I also have a miserable sore throat too, I hear it was going around, I actually missed most of work today because I couldn’t talk this morning. Nice to know that cashier lady is rubbing it all over your change… Turns out, management wouldn’t let her leave because they use the slime in the back of her throat in the special sauce for the Cheesy Beefy Melt Read the rest of this entry »
