What’s Going on in Oklahoma: October 1st- October 4th

So much to do this weekend and only 2 days to fit it all in. My 2 favorite events in the Oklahoma City metro are this weekend- Czech Festival in Yukon and the Greek Festival in NW OKC. Both are so much fun, I might try to hit both. The wine festival in Hennessey is also quite fun. Plenty of car shows again, as well as a bunch of food festivals and music festivals. Oktoberfest is also a big event this weekend, pick a town. With the beginning of October means spooky season, lots of haunted houses and pumpkin patches are opening this weekend. So try to get out and have fun this weekend.

Food Friday: Taqueria Hernandez

While walking around the town square in Altus, I kept being hit with the unmistakable smell of fajitas cooking. The smell drew me into a small little building on the corner of US Highway 62 and Hudson Street. This little place is a true hidden gem in Altus.

I like to judge a Mexican restaurant on their chimichangas, these were different than I have had anywhere else. I got 3 small chimichangas (instead of the normal big one), with the usual side of beans and rice. There was actually something refreshing with these chimichangas, they weren’t drenched in sauce, they were just plain which allowed me to experience more of the meat and fried tortilla flavors. The ground beef inside was spiced nicely with just a bit of cheese and the tortillas didn’t have that greasy taste that sometimes is a downside of chimichangas. The rise was really good, had a buttery Hispanic taste that was also something that was refreshing. The refried beans were more of a soup type than what I’m used to as well. I’m still torn on them but I know there are people who like them to be runny. The chips and salsa were also good, the chips were fresh and light, the salsa had a good kick to it.

So if you find yourself in Altus, take a walk around their historic town square and stop in at Taqueria Hernandez. The staff was friendly and the decor was beautiful, with hand painted walls. The outside of the building has a look that reminds me of the old 1950’s diners. I’ll give them 5 strips of bacon.

Address: 101 N. Hudson St., Altus.
