Teague and Fairfield communities and law enforcement join the Mi Mesa family on Friday, October 4, 2019 to celebrate the opening of a new Food Truck Restaurant on Highway 84 (next door to Daps Stop N Shop in Teague). Owner Isabel Velazquez (above) cuts the ribbon as husband Armando shows of a membership plaque from Fairfield Chamber of Commerce.
Fajitas, salsa, and sopapilla cheesecake were on the menu after Mi Mesa’s ribbon cutting Friday, October 4th, 2019.
Mi Mesa is a food truck opening right next to Dap’s in Teague on October 24th, 2019.
Mi Mesa means My Table, and that’s exactly how owner, Isabel Velazquez, wants you to feel as you eat her food.
“My Mom always taught us that if it’s homemade it makes people feel like home” Velazquez explains with a big smile.
Velazquez loves to cook and started out with event catering before her decision to open the food truck.
Her menu includes breakfast and lunch with your choice of shell including fresh made corn and flour tortillas, plus your choice of meat and sides.
Each day she is open there is a unique meal offered, and desserts for those who like a little sweet after they eat.
The location has a covered area and cement pad, and Mi Mesa plans on adding seating in the future for people to comfortably wait, or stay and enjoy their food.
Additionally, restrooms and heaters are also on the list for future additions.
Velazquez will still be available for event planning and catering which includes not only her delicious food, but also her elegant decorating skills.
“I always like to be humble and honest.” Velazquez explains, “Those are the best things that any person can be.”
Mi Mesa will be open Wednesday through Friday 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and Saturday 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at 901 W. Hwy 84 Teague, Texas, and can be reached 903-388-5179.
Mi Mesa has a page on Facebook for the food truck and the event catering, and she plans on sharing giveaways, discounts and important information to everyone who likes her page.
In attendance to support and help Velazquez was her husband, Armando, and her children: Jacqueline, Armando Jr, Sebastian, Victoria and Zion Velazquez.
