🌭 🌭

They’ve been serving El Paso–style street food in South Austin since its food truck days in the late 2010s, and they’re still doing it their way.

Start here: the DROWNED flautas (ELP tacos / tacos ahogados).

Rolled flautas get fully drowned in a savory, tomato-forward sauce and finished with shredded cheese and salsa.

They’re intentionally messy, soft, saucy, and fork-required. This is border comfort food and it’s a fairly unique plate in the Austin taco landscape.

📍 730 W Stassney Ln #165, Austin, TX 78745
⭐️ High-4s rating across hundreds of reviews
🕐 11a-9p most days - follow them for specifics
🌮 Originally launched as a food truck around 2017 before moving into this brick-and-mortar

Beyond the drowned flautas, the menu leans heavy into El Paso street staples and loaded comfort plates:

• Mexican-style hot dogs
• Chili cheese dogs
• Carne asada fries
• Quesadillas + stacked combo plates
• Big portions & bold sauces

Another great South Austin spot with no frills. 🫶

❤️ 10 things I’ve learned in 9 years working in food & local social media ❤️

1️⃣ You don’t need deep food knowledge to get views. You need to know how to build a video people keep watching. Hooks, pacing, framing, retention. Platforms measure behavior first.

This is frustrating for true foodies 😂

2️⃣ High views don’t guarantee customers show up. Sometimes the content hits but the offer or timing doesn’t. Attention and action are different metrics.

3️⃣ Low-view posts can still drive real business.
The right local audience beats a big random one.

4️⃣ Highly produced content doesn’t always perform better. If it feels like an ad, people treat it like one. Real usually beats over-polished.

5️⃣ Spending more doesn’t guarantee better results. Creativity, story, and trust outperform templates and trend copies.

6️⃣ People prefer watching the build over the finished product. Prep, process, behind-the-scenes pulls people in.

7️⃣ Process builds more trust than polish.
Seeing the work increases credibility and buy-in.

8️⃣ Aggregator pages can grow fast by reposting and packaging other people’s work. Original creators show up, shoot it, edit it, and stand behind it. Distribution and creation aren’t the same thing.

A lot of folks use pictures that aren’t theirs. 😐

9️⃣ More exposure isn’t always better exposure.
Influencers bring attention 👀 and association.

Alignment matters.

🔟 Most brands would benefit from posting more in-house. Staff sees the real moments daily. That authenticity is hard to outsource.

To be clear, I’m not claiming to be an expert 🤓 these are just educated opinions from doing this for 9 years in Austin food media.

If this kind of thinking is useful, I offer consulting, direction, and editing/tool guidance for brands and creators who want to get sharper and more intentional. 🫡

🐇 quick weekend dump 🐇

I was lucky enough to host my dad visiting from Indiana and my sister visiting from San Francisco this past weekend

We got to spend some quality time with my lady friend 😂 eat a ton of amazing food & catch up on a few things in the same space - which is rare these days.

I want to take some time to thank for the hospitality at on Friday - the kindness of .reyna for saying hello at / Friday evening - and for joining us ❤️

A big thanks to for letting my bring my crew along for a photo shoot - and a giant Cajun thank ya to for hooking me up with a couple pounds of the best crawfish in Austin 🫶 he’s at every Saturday this month - get you some!

Anyway - it was a great weekend and I feel very lucky to get to experience so many great spots with the people I love.

Talk soon - Æ

🥹 🥹

My side hustle turned full time job started 6 years ago today 🫣

hired me! I asked for $100 and they gave me $120. I was over the moon - couldn’t believe I got PAID for doing what I loved 📸

I also thought I’d be RICH 😂 I had a full time job - and now I’m getting $100 whenever I want??

Hell ya

Idk if yall remember what happened just a few weeks later in 2020 but the opportunities to take pictures for restaurants sharply declined 😂😷

BUT - I did have the full time job, and I still had a camera, and not much to do - so I’d often take off on a walk with Noodles 🐕‍🦺 a podcast, and my camera

I took it with me everywhere and watched far too many YouTube videos about the how shutter speed, aperture, and ISO all work together - the rule of thirds - lighting - editing - cropping etc 🤓

Then - right when I thought I figured out pictures, the internet decided to shift to video 🙃 and so Noodles and I got a brand new challenge

This is not a story of misfortune - I’m incredibly lucky that I got to choose this challenges voluntarily, with no rush, and with a full time job during the day.

Today I get to use my experience through to consult businesses, my experience at my former job to be confident in looking at data, my life experience, and my creativity to continue to earn a living by (hopefully) helping local businesses ❤️

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who’s supported TBM from day one

🚨 BREAKING BURGER NEWS 🚨

Beloved Burger Bar, is Bring Back the BIG PARMA 🥫

From conversations with Hopdoddy, this is by far and away the most requested “Burger of the Month” - and I’m 1000% on board with these requests 😂 maybe if we order enough of them, they’ll keep it on the menu 👀

This chicken parm in a bun comes with either a grilled chicken patty - OR - you can do the pro move 🤠 and get it as a fried chicken sandwich, dipped in a spicy oil, then topped with that famous pomodoro 😋

All of these sandwiches come with a slick slice of mozz and a layer of basil mayo on the bottom bun

THIS IS AN EXCLUSIVE LOOK - THESE BAD BOYS ARE AVAILABLE STARTING TOMORROW, FEB 3rd 🍔

See yall tomorrow 🤜🤛
