08.09.09 – Taco Tuesday at Flying Fajita Sistas

Finally! I have experienced the wonder that is real Mexican food. And good food Mexican food at that! To sweeten the deal, tacos are only $3 each on Tuesdays – score of the century considering how brutally they put the fast food variety and Old El Paso special I have been accustomed to, to shame. I loved it all! The food, the decor, the friendly wait staff and especially the element of adventure and danger that the “Wall of Pain” brought to our dining experience.

I did however,  leave the place with a twinge of regret – we enjoyed the tacos so much, we didn’t try anything else on the menu. We’re positive though, that the other dishes will  be more than worth their full price and have resolved to return on a day other than Tuesday so we don’t succumb to the temptation that is the three dollar taco.

Best. Tacos. Ever! L-R: Chicken, Shredded Beef and Pork.

The Wall of Pain! Complete with hanging skeletons, it’s that deadly! “Please seek staff advice before taking hot sauces from the top shelf.”

The 3 sauces we tried – the first two of which were from the top shelf. “Scorpion Chilli Fiery Temper”, “Jersey Death” and “White Zombie”. Love the names and warnings on the bottles! “Hot in, hot out”. Hmm.

Paul, the dirty gringo with a mouth on fire after a tiny dab of the Fiery Temper.

… And it isn’t any wonder, look at all those little flecks of chilli! A dip of one fork prong of this stuff had our mouths burn INTENSELY for the next 15 minutes.

I’m grabbing a shot of the wall of pain when I hear “HEY SISTA!” from behind. Uh oh, I was in trouble now! Maybe I shouldn’t have been taking photos. I turned around and one of the wait staff is pointing to this shelf of sauces. “You should be getting one of these, they look better!”. And so I did. Phew! I wasn’t in any trouble.

And look what I found this amongst all the food stuffs. A tortilla press!
