Enchilada Day in Stephenville
Stephenville, TX, has enough interesting Mexican restaurants to keep a TexMex food lover entertained for two weeks.
Wednesday seems to be the day enchiladas are on special. Pulido's, located at 808 East Road, currently has a lunch special of enchiladas for only $4.98. The price is cheap enough to make the customers suspicious. Upon entering I was greeted by a lovely server named Autumn. She brought me some delicious salsa with a basket of crisp chips. The salsa was tea-guzzling hot. She said that some days it is hotter than others. There seems to be no way to predict the heat of the jalapeños. Since she was generous with the bladder-bursting tea, I enjoyed every drop of the salsa. When the beef enchiladas arrived, I thought I was not hungry; after one whiff, I realized I was starving. Yum!
There are 10 Pulido's restaurants scattered throughout central Texas. Pulido's 31 is on Pulido Street in Fort Worth. There are two more of them in Fort Worth. Also Pulido's is in Cleburne, Weatherford, Eastland, Hurst, Arlington, and Mineral Wells. Here's the history:
Pedro and Dionicia Pulido migrated to the United States from Mexico in 1966 with their children. They scarely had more than the clothes they were wearing. For over forty years the Pulido family has been working hard and cooking Mama Pulido's delicious recipes.
Oops! I have wandered far from Stephenville. Back in Stephenville on the edge of town there's a neat place called the Agave Grill. On Wednesday night the enchiladas are on special for a ridiculously low price of $5.98. There is a choice of chicken, beef, or cheese. You can get a mixture, and there is guacamole on the plate. Unbelievable! And it is an all-you-can-eat special.
After putting away a cup of the most delicious French onion soup I've ever tasted and after eating lunch at Pulido's, I could eat only one plate of enchiladas. They were good! Restaurant evaluation is hard work, but somebody has to do it. The server was an intelligent and handsome young man, who is getting ready to attend Tarleton. He made the meal pleasant with his prompt service.
Whether the other Mexican restaurants in Stephenville were having enchilada specials on Wednesday I do not know. I am facing a dilemma. Should I investigate all the other Puliodo's restaurants or return every Wednesday to continue the investigation of enchilada specials?
