Dallas gets 94 years for 94 cents
Is that any way to say thank you? Darn right it is!
DALLAS, Sept. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- To celebrate its 94th birthday this Wednesday, El Fenix—the folks who made Tex-Mex a food group in its own right—will be offering 94 cent cheese enchilada meals all day long at its original, downtown, 1601 McKinney location.
Some folks might ask: how they can do it? To which most would answer: who cares? Who wouldnʼt accept El Fenixʼs Thank-You-Dallas gift with a grateful, bellyful of youʼre welcome. After all, Dallas worships Tex-Mex!
Those who canʼt make it downtown that day can take heart, though. All 19 of El Fenixʼs other locations will be celebrating Wednesday the 19th, too. It wonʼt be with 94 cent enchilada special but, $3.00 will buy one of their signature margaritas—named D Magazineʼs 2011-12 Best.
In case you didnʼt know, both D Magazine and The Dallas Morning News named El Fenix Dallasʼ Best Tex Mex this past year, with "D" adding top honors for the restaurantʼs frozen tequila-and- lime-kissed cocktail, too.
Itʼs hard to believe, but when El Fenix opened its doors in 1918 in downtown Dallas, women were still marching for the right to vote, Love Field was a dinky Army airfield, and the Adolphus Hotel was a "skyscraper." Yet the man who started the iconic restaurant brand, Miguel Martinez—a man who came to Dallas to flee revolution in his native Mexico—started a revolution of his very own that year. Martinez may not have invented Tex-Mex, but his El Fenix restaurant chain certainly popularized it and, today, Tex-Mex is everywhere—all across the USA and as far away as Paris and Bangkok.
El Fenix continues to win the hearts and stomachs of loyal customers across Dallas-Fort Worth. More information about El Fenix is available at elfenix.com. Regular updates are available by following El Fenix on Facebook and Twitter (http://twitter.com/ElFenixRest).
El Fenix thanks DFW for its 94 years of faithful gustatory support!
