Gas station breakfast.

Sometimes there's just nothing better than waking up slowly on a late February Sunday morning, sleepily pushing your way into the humid, overcast day and finding fresh and fiery familiarity at the back of a gas station/convenience store. You can sit at the bar that cradles the tiny open kitchen, or you can kick the back door and eat at the picnic tables, listening to the sound of the highway, drinking your coffee and enjoying the warming spring air. 


Señor Buddy's, off of Highway 290 outside of Austin, is now our favorite place for chilaquiles.
