Jessie on a Journey
A colorful and vibrant Tex-Mex dish is presented in a white ceramic bowl against a deep blue background. The dish features succulent roasted chicken pieces stewed in a flavorful tomato-based sauce alongside zucchini, corn kernels, and refried beans. Garnished with fresh tomato slices and a sprinkle of crumbly white cheese, it showcases the rich and diverse flavors of Mexican cuisine. Accompanying the hearty stew is a portion of fragrant Spanish rice and crispy tortilla chips, likely served with a zesty salsa on the side. This vibrant and mouthwatering dish exudes the warmth and comfort of traditional Tex-Mex cooking, inviting diners to savor the bold and satisfying flavors.

Historic Mi Tierra: Vibrant Tex-Mex Dining in San Antonio

In Historic Market Square I found the delicious and quirky Mi Tierra Restaurant & Bakery, a Tex-Mex eatery serving patrons since 1941. What attracted me inside aside for the gorgeous bakery case were the servers dressed in Mexican Fiesta Dresses and the blindingly colorful decor — including a fun (and somewhat loco) array of Christmas decorations. A smiling Mexican man strummed a vihuela while I dug into a juicy roasted chicken stewed with tomatoes, zucchini and corn and served with retried beans, Spanish rice, hot tortilla chips and salsa — only $7.50 on lunch special. What's your favorite restaurant in San Antonio, Texas?
