Smalls: I don't want to!
Well, we did anyway, and it was fun.
Taqueria El Cazador #2 is the bus that's parked on Governors Drive in Huntsville. They have another location at 10099 South Memorial Parkway. |
While waiting for our food at the picnic table outside:
Smalls: I thought the bus was going to be moving while we ate!
Me: Oh, well, it doesn't. It stays here.
Smalls: Why does it have wheels, then?
Smalls and I shared a chicken quesadilla plate and a bottle of water. It was $6. The drink choices are bottled water, Coke, and Jarritos. As far as I could tell, there's no kids' menu, and most of the choices were like combo plates, so I don't know if you can order, say, one cheese quesadilla or something (which is what Smalls likes at Mexican restaurants). But Smalls loved the quesadilla we shared (she said it was "forty" good--I think that's a lot).
You can eat here with your toddlers, and you should because the food is good (for grownups, at least), and it's fun to eat food cooked in a bus. But bring another adult with you, and go on a warm day, so one of you can stay outside of the bus with the kids while the other goes inside to order. It was a little tight waiting to order in the bus, and I didn't want to annoy anyone sitting at the counter/window seats. You can take the kids in one at a time if they're curious, so they can see the bus restaurant and say they've done it. But there's no room for playing around or pretending you're a pigeon that wants to drive the bus or anything. You know, normal things people want to do on buses.
Bathroom report: None.
Toddler friendliness ratings:
Atmosphere: 2.5 out of 5. There's not much room to maneuver with a toddler inside the bus.
Food: 3 out of 5. Smalls liked the chicken quesadilla, but I didn't see a way to get smaller portions. Sharing off your plate might be the way to go.
