I have no idea what happened to El Padrino #1 - or if there even is one. Though slightly puzzling to me, it's of no real consequence since El Padrino #2 is a fine establishment and I'm so glad to have found it!
Located in Bishop's Art, this little stand shop completed my lifelong quest for breakfast tacos.
To begin, it's cheap. Four tacos and two Mexican cokes ran us about $10 - most of that cost was the coke.
You can choose if you want corn or flour tortillas. I had the corn - they were unmatched - but I did covet the flour, as they looked thick and perfect in the way that only hand made tortillas can.
You can do breakfast, which is served all day, or you can opt for lunch/dinner. After you order up at the window, you can either eat in your car, or choose one of the two cement tables outside the taco stand. You definitely don't want to be driving when you first experience El Padrino #2, as you may wreck your car with sheer happiness.
We tried the egg, cheese, and potato taco - tears of joy.
We also tried the egg, chorizo, and cheese - there is no finer combination.
Two sauces are offered: a green chile sauce (pass), and a red sauce (lit my mouth on fire).
All in all, this was so very much worth the drive.
