I like the Baja Shrimp the best but I honestly have liked them all. I tried them all but the tuna and salmon ones.
But none of the tacos are as good as the queso."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

FYI, there are some secret menu items:
Missionary-style Green Chili Pork: carnitas, pickled onions, guacamole, jack cheese and cilantro, topped with chipotle sauce and wrapped in a flour and corn two-tortilla tandem.
Jack of Clubs: fried egg and grilled potatoes with black beans, tortilla strips and cheese; all topped with cilantro, sour cream and Torchy’s Diablo sauce.
The Hipster: panko-breaded fried tuna, with bacon, green chilies and black beans; topped with cilantro and cotija cheese, and served on a flour tortilla with avocado sauce.
The Mad Cow: skirt steak with black beans and corn; topped with jack cheese, cilantro and ranch.
Trailer Park, Hillbilly Style: Torchy’s gauche standby is made even trashier with chorizo and chopped bacon atop the usual fried chicken tender with green chilies, queso and ranch, served on a flour tortilla.
Ace of Spades: jalapeño sausage link and grilled brisket topped with a fried egg, green chile queso, cotija cheese, sour cream, more cheese and Diablo sauce, served on a flour tortilla.
The Matador: chopped brisket and grilled jalapeño topped with pickled onions, jack cheese, avocado, sour cream and cilantro with tomatillo sauce on a corn tortilla."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

But part of that is hype. Franklin's partner quit a couple of years ago and now runs his own place:

It has now surpassed Franklin's as the #1-rated place according to the annual readers' poll in the Austin American Statesman. I have eaten there twice and it was the best BBQ I have ever had. They also open at 11 am, but if you get in line by 10 am or so, you will be fine."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right?

My trip this fall:
St Petersburg: I have always wanted to go here. We will be there 5 days to visit the inlaws on their mission. Cannot wait to see the art in this city and the theater.
Moscow (for just 2 days)
Then since we are in the neighborhood and flights in Europe are dirt cheap, we are going to spend some time in eastern Europe.
Fly over to Budapest for 2 nights.
Then thinking of driving up into Slovakia so that I can go hiking for a few days here: http://www.summitpost.org/slovensky-raj-slovakia/526213
Then finish things off with 4 days in Prague with a day trip down Cesky Krumlov.
I'll take any suggestions.
