When I lived in Carrboro I was within walking distance of sort of a post-hippie diner named Elmos. (Post-hippie=served granola and hummus and bacon, all on the same plate if you asked.) They had the best coffee ever, as well as damned fine huervos rancheros. I remember going there one Saturday for brunch, drinking about 7 cups of coffee, and then burbling to my roommate about how beautiful everyone in the room was.
Buckle up, kids! Daddy's puttin' the hammer down.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Best breakfast we ever had was at El Sol Y La Luna in Austin, TX. I love freshly made tortillas served up with migas with chorizo and refried beans on the side.

You know there's a really good tortillaria in Fells Point now? At least one.
Best breakfast burritos I ever had were at the Dairy Queen in the little town it TX my grandparents lived in. Freshly made tortillas and everything. So yum.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I just had artichoke and tofu pizza. Would have been better without the tofu.

I can't remember! I'll ask my friend and let you know. She is writing about them for an upcoming Baltimore Magazine issue. I think...anyway she brought a bunch of them home and we made fish tacos for America's Next Top Model night a couple of weeks ago. The place mostly sells tortillas to go but they also do some tacos there.
ETA .. Hah! It's called La Tortilleria. I'll find out the address.

Thank you, ma'am. There is a mexican place that just opened up near me, and seems to do a brisk business, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
