My search for quality Mexican breakfast in Plainview is over. El Girasol is the place. Some months back I come here but was half an hour past their close and made it a point to come in the next time I was passing through town
The location is just near the Amigos grocer on the north side of town. It's a small dated building with ten or so tables. When I came in there only one table taken and it seemed they were finishing up. The individual who I presume is the owner greeted me and followed me to the table of my choosing. Before proceeding further, I asked the most important question for a Mexican eatery, 'Do you make your own tortillas?'. I was very pleased to hear that they do. As he went to get my beverage I scanned the menu. The menu is in Spanish and English, I made it just before close but hadn't had breakfast yet
What I wanted wasn't on the menu so when he returned I explained what I was wanting to eat and if they could accommodate my request. I requested 'migas rancheras' but got 'migas a la mexicana' and it was absolutely delicious despite not being exactly what I requested. It seems even in the same town one Mexican spot calls it different from the other so I accepted that it was as close as I would get to what I wanted
Took around ten minutes for the food to be delivered to my table. It came with homefries, bacon, and two beautifully cooked flour tortillas. I enjoyed every bite and just had to request a couple extra tortillas. The homefries could have used a tad more time to crisp up but were still fully cooked through and the bacon was cooked just right. The tortillas were soft, fluffly, and had wonderful flavour. The total was just under nine dollars, was and still is the best Mexican breakfast I've had this year. I will be returning here every chance I get read more
