Social Distancing FOOD TOUR in San Antonio! Trying City's BEST Tacos, Raspa and Barbacoa 🍽

San Antonio FOOD TOUR! We love Texas, and San Antonio sure didn’t let us down! We spent a few days tasting all sorts of well known dishes from Tex Mex to donuts to asian chicken wings... and it was delicious! We’ll for sure have to go on a diet after this one, but it was totally worth it 😁

I'm surprised you guys didn't go to Pollos Asados del Norte, Taquitos West Ave, and the Cove. My favorite spots in San Antonio.

[@penelopehernandez3066]

Yeah they did Tex Mex food. Pollos asados El Norteño is so good!!

[@Sansuzanna]

The Cove.....yes!!!!

as a san antonio local i was so happy y’all went to the original donut shop! it’s highly underrated by tourists, but adored by us locals😆

I'm an uncultured swine san antonio local. I've never been to any of these places and I live about 10min away from each of them 🤦‍♀️

"Barbacoa can actually be several different meat types is more about the cooking process". As a Mexican, I tell you that you are correct. Many people do not understand that there are many different types of barbacoas!! The barbacao varies in each city of Mexico and with people's preferences. Great video!!

Big ol women in San Antonio!!

[@BridgetMWillard]

Ha ha yes!

[@vanthosanasthasia6333]

Truth. I'm skinny with a size 30 waist, and i don't know how that happens here. We take literally every opportunity to go eat pizza followed by coffee at Blue Brick. Or Las Palapas at 3 in the morning. Or Greek food either at Deimos or Mina & Dimi's. Or wherever Tre Trattoria has moved. and the random Thai and Vietnamese restaurants. OMG I love those places.

[@carla82287]

Yep . That’s one of the reasons why I moved lol.

No lie HAHSHA

[@AngelaSealana]

This was so cute. - native SA local ☺️ Next time, keep your parking space at the Pearl and just walk down to the Riverwalk which runs right along Hotel Emma at the Pearl. 👍

[@paulisczak]

I was going to say the same thing. The main downtown Riverwalk is close, and you get to see the cool art under the I-35 bridge.

[@Wanderlust4Marisaki]

Wow! Definitely visiting San Antonio, TX the next time I'm in the States- hidden gem!

[@monicacurd3774]

Yes come visit!!! Make sure you stay near the river walk. We also have the Pearl too. We have great good and margaritas !!!

[@mb5597]

Usually places like the riverwalk are for tourists but, I lived there for over 30 years and we went there all the time. When we visit, we still go and usually end up eating at Casa Rio. It's been there since the 1940's!

[@mb5597]

@Bud Green I don't know where you're going or what you do there but when we go, we go for walks, a meal and for the ambiance. The walks and the ambiance don't cost a thing, and the meals are comparable to anywhere else in San Antonio. We usually eat at Casa Rio because the food is great and has been for at least 75 years!

[@truss6282]

Lived in San Antonio for 5 years. Moved away in 2005,I miss the food like crazy. Best food in the nation,I can't wait to retire back to this city.

TEXAS! The food scene here is amazing! Love it!

[@mb5597]

Took my grandsons to San Antonio, where the eldest tried barbacoa, he was 10 at the time. He decided then and there it was his favorite meat in the whole world. It is so much easier to introduce children to "different" foods when they are younger.

[@lauras2314]

I'm from San Antonio and just moved away pre covid. Thank you for making me home sick in a good way.

[@alanjoseph]

I just moved to SATX and I’m happy to see this on KZbin. What kid friendly activities or places do you recommend?

[@abigailgarcia4115]

Definitely try out the hemisfair park! Check out the zoo :) or just simply take a stroll downtown along the river walk. I would also recommend taking a boat tour :) very educational and scenic .

[@chelseasuzuki8527]

River walk, the pearl, if you like to fish there is calaveras or braunig lake (plenty more but those are popular), 6 flags, the Botanical garden, sea world, downtown in general. Go out and explore. I love my city 😛

[@japnikki]

Nature bridge caverns, Salado trails, canyon lake, government hill trails ( dinosaur tracks) etc…

[@haileyschmidt3773]

Y'alls reaction to the chamoy had me dead!! Thanks for visiting SATX, next time you should try a mangonada, they're the best

A festival called "fiesta" y'all I'm losing it 🤣

[@brooksdurham5285]

why? keep it in your pants. It is actually a 10 day event with all kinds of festivals, parades and a carnival downtown. Not sure why it would make anyone "lose it". Seek some professional help.

[@margarethammock799]

We are headed to San Antonio this weekend to retrace your steps. We had been trying to figure out where to go we are going stir crazy and San Antonio is perfect. I haven't been in about 20 years and I live in Houston 🙄 and we also love Mexican food breakfast tacos are my favorite and could eat them for breakfast and dinner.

[@vanthosanasthasia6333]

San Antonian dropping in. Our food is the one major factor really keeping this town alive. We of course have good concert venues like Aztec Theatre and the AT&T center, and smaller places to see underground music like Paper Tiger, Bang Bang Bar, Limelight, etc. But munching on our cuisines while going to the historic sites is what really does it for the mainstream and I love the town that it's built from that. So many amazing small restaurants (our beloved 210 Pizza) on our street had to close down for good. I'm glad to see you were able to get so much enjoyment out of the ones still open, and hopefully when this is all over and people are hopefully given loans or something to start over that you guys come back and see what we're like when corona isn't happening. Buenos viajes

[@angelgregio]

"I am a sucker for Chorizo in the morning".....giggidy.

[@briankish3757]

Interesting Italian-Spanish accent when describing the tacos. Mama Mia! 🤣

[@thejompi]

What San Antonio isn’t on the culinary map? It’s the birth place of Tex mex cuisine and the ones that innovates on the cuisine. Y’all need to try some birria quesatacos, marzapan waffles, marzapan horchata. San Antonio also has a Culinary Institute of America which contributes in the Pearl. The Pearl is a good place to get an idea of the culinary scene of San Antonio. As for the riverwalk pro tip park at the Pearl and walk all the way to downtown. Downtown parking as you said it’s expensive and not worth it.

[@shihabuddin611]

Allison is so funny with her made up nicknames 😂😂😂

[@thebuddymoon]

Agree😁

[@treehuggingmusician595]

I've been to San Antonio many times, but usually in February for the Texas Music Educator Association Convention. We enjoy the Pearl District where there is a good place to eat vegetarian food. It is a great city which has something for everyone. The Missions are very interesting to tour too.

[@edwardparkhurst9804]

Fantastic food adventure you both have delivered to us that watch your channel. Outstanding balance of culture and taste. Thanks for sharing this electrifying video of your life and times. Eloquently done with a gold standard of living the dream many people wish they had.

Y’all should have gone to Lulu’s Bakery and Cafe for the Cinnamon Roll or Mi Tierra Cafe for the Pan dulche selection.

[@cassandraanderson3314]

For anyone not from San Antonio looking to visit, please do. There's some really awesome places to check out. But I wouldn't recommend the Pearl Farmer' Market. It's not really a farmer's market anymore where you can get fresh produce. It's more of a place where venders sell their products, albeit they have nice stuff to buy, but don't expect to see local farmers selling their crops.

[@TonoyLetsgo]

Thats an amazing video. Love to see your vlog. Keep inspiring us to make awesome video. ❤❤

Thank you for visiting the beautiful city of San Antonio. I live in San Antonio. You could have parked for free at the Pearl Brewery. You were there during the video enjoying the Farmers’ market. The riverwalk is connected to the Pearl. I hope that you have the opportunity to check it out in the future. Have a great weekend.

Thank y’all for stopping by our awesome city and great choices on eats. There so many different places we have in the city that you should come back and try. I recommend French Sandwiches, a small sandwich shop in the medical center that has some Vietnamese influence in the menu and the best French Onion soup I’ve ever had.

[@fred21gps1]

Tellez is the best. The aroma takes me back to my childhood. The line for tamales on the holidays is down the block. Welch’s grape soda, Orange Crush & Big Red have the highest sugar content. Barbacoa & Big Red are regular Sunday morning meals for most San Antonians. There are tons of great Barbacoa places throughout the city. FYI: in Spanish the “i” sounds like a long “e”. The “e” sounds like a long “a”. Car-nay Gee-SA-Tha (the “d” sounds like a “th”).

[@venessa130]

"That's what they used to call me in Highschool" 😂 I don't know why San Antonio calls it "Fideo Loco" when my grandma used to make it the same exact way growing up in Brownsville, Texas and she would always call it "Fideo" or "Fideo con Carne" Also it makes me sad that it was bland for you guys. Good fideo if made right is soooooo flavorful. We also add chouloula to it for a splash of flavor along with a splash of lime.
