CANTINA LAREDO - DALLAS/FT. WORTH AIRPORT CONCOURSE D

CANTINA LAREDO

CONCOURSE D

DALLAS/FT. WORTH AIRPORT 

I passed on dinner the night before flying out of Palm Beach and did not eat breakfast while flying to Dallas.  When I arrived in Dallas, I caught the tram to Concourse D to make a connection.  As I walked towards my gate, I looked around for a place to eat.  I saw Cantina Laredo - Gourmet Mexican Food up on the second floor and quickly found the elevator that led to the eatery.  It was around 11:00 am and the place was empty.  There were three employees sitting out front and I asked if they were open.  "Yes" one of the guys shouted.  "Been open since 8:00 am and you are our second customer".  I was seated at a table overlooking the concourse and my waiter introduced himself as Jay.  I remember this because he told me his name three times.  Very personable and attentive.  I ordered two Chicken Enchiladas and a Steak Taco with Beans and Rice.  Jay told me that the enchiladas came with a Sour Creme Sauce.  No problem I said.  Chips and Salsa quickly were delivered to my table.  Fresh and warm chips with a really good salsa.  My plate arrived with a pile of white sauce over the enchiladas.  Looked terrible.  I started with the steak taco after adding guacamole and salsa to it.  The taco was delicious.  The enchiladas were filled with a pretty dry chicken.  The sauce was pretty tasteless.  I poured on a ton of salsa and they were eatable.  Beans and Rice were good.  Price for this meal was around $14.  I liked the table overlooking the terminal and would definitely go back and eat here again.

Traveled through Dallas again and stopped at another Cantina Laredo in the airport.
This one was near the American Airlines Admirals Club.  Enjoyed some really
good Steak Tacos and a beer.  Nice little lunch when you have not had Mexican food for weeks.

CHIPS AND SALSA AND A COLD COORS LIGHT AFTER TWO WEEKS IN GERMANY.  YUMMY!

TWO STEAK TACOS
