Ask anyone in the neighborhood where the best place to get breakfast tacos and almost anyone will say it's Eddie's.
May sound strange to non-Texans but yes we eat tacos for breakfast and they are fantastic! Bean, bacon, potato and cheese is a favorite of mine but can't ever go wrong with a simple bean and cheese.

Whataburger is as much a part of Texas as a barbacoa taco and Big Red for breakfast.
Now there are many debates on which way to properly order a Whataburger and I know after many late nights in college, I have perfected the Whataburger order:
#4 which is a Whataburger with cheese and jalapenos but the secret is in the steps that follow. Make sure to ask for grilled jalapenos, grilled onions, toasted buns and add ketchup along with the standard mustard. I prefer no tomatoes if I am ordering to-go. If strawberry Fanta is an option, you must order it or a sweet tea as a second option.
