Mr. Naked Taco and Homemade Ice Cream
Taco's and Ice Cream make the world a better place
My family has been a big fan of the Mexican ice cream in Albertville for a long time. Any time I’m traveling thru there with friends, I try to make it a point to stop in for some ice cream. We have never been disappointed. When I found out we were getting one in Huntsville we were excited about it to say the least.
I will say, we did go in a couple times for just ice cream when it opened but after seeing the large menu for the food side, we had to give it a try.
Let me say, this is the real deal Mexican restaurant. It’s not a tex-mex or Americanized establishment. We did have some musical entertainment on the night we were there and it was fun listening to him while our food was being prepaird.
They have a salsa bar that you can help yourself to with several different kinds of salsa including a standard and very good salsa along with a hot salsa and some others that I didn’t try but were very different than any others I’ve seen.
For the kids, they do have hot dogs and chicken fingers with fries if they don’t want to try any mexican food off of the kids menu.
Hawaiian Polo Loco
This dish is your classic Polo Loco (chicken over rice with melted cheese) with added pineapple. I was told this was very good and would be selected again when we go back.
The Three Sisters
The Three Sisters are three different chimichangas. One chicken, one beef and one shrimp. The beef was a chopped steak style, where the chicken was a pulled chicken. All three were good but I’d rank them in order of shrimp, chicken then beef. All were covered with cheese sauce and came with 2 sides.
Juan Colorado
So this was on the specials board (pic above) so I’m not sure if it’s something they are going to have all the time or not but my wife got this and said it was amazing. You can see from the board what is on it and it was big enough that she took some home and still didn’t have room for ice cream.
Now on to the good stuff
Mexican Ice-Cream
I tried to get some pictures of the different kinds of ice cream they have. There are your standard flavors like we are used to and then there are some you would have never guessed. Like Avocado, Corn, Gansito (Mexican snack cakes), 3Leches. Many, many popsicles and ice-cream on a stick ready to go. Below are the shots I took but I believe some of the flavors will change when they run out. I will say my favorites are the coconut and the Oreo. I did have a sample of the banana pudding ice-cream and it was wonderful. It was spot on for banana pudding. It didn’t have the Nilla wafers in it but had sugar cookie wafers and it was great. They do offer samples so I’d encourage you to give them a try. Who knows, the Avocado ice-cream may be good. You’ll have to tell me about it and I’ll take your word for it.
