Taste Addison Tips

The margaritas are lime gatorade mixed with crushed ice. If you still feel the need for a margarita, you have options. When you first enter the gate, Cristina's is to your right. Their "margaritas" are $10! You do get some fancy (girly) looking plastic cup that you will probably end up throwing away at the end of the night. A better value is the "margarita" at Cantina Laredo which is back towards the building that hosts the Robert Mondavi tasting. Their "margaritas", though a couple of ounces less, were either $4 or $6. I forget because I consumed several of the value priced 16 oz. Miller Lites at $3 each. That's less than they charge at the restaurants. Don't drink too many or you'll end up switching electricity providers and come home with a bag that says "Green Mountain Energy".

Freebirds is making burritos, though they don't have the full line of choices. My wife, after a couple of glasses of wine and a Cristina's "margarita", said it was "so good".

I think it's Chamberlain's that has a $2 booth. They had some Prime Chili which was outstanding. They had small draft beers too, but wouldn't refill my empty Miller Lite bottle.

If you're there for the concert, don't try to have too much fun. The Addison Police will stop you. As soon as a girl gets on a guy's shoulders, they will be there to stop it. And if you are there for the concert, in front of stage left is less crowded than stage right.

I left a Coke Zero for you in the parking garage. Have fun!

  1. Another tip: volunteers enter on Quorum near the DART Transfer Center 30 minutes before T.A. begins. So get to that gate about 45 minutes before and get in free.
