Cactus Flower in Pensacola

The Cactus Flower in Pensacola is usually the first place we go when we get to Pensacola. They have some of the best Mexican food you can find, freshly prepared, and you better get there early or you’ll have to wait a while for a table – the secret is out!

Located in a small strip mall undergoing some serious renovation, the Cactus Flower serves lunch and dinner. You’ll see all your friends there – we can’t go there without running into someone we know.

This is the chicken quesadilla. It is more than one person can eat! We took the rest home for another meal.

This is the three taco dinner; you can choose chicken, beef or pulled pork, or any combination of the above. It comes with a choice of beans (these are the smashed beans) and rice, too. Usually, I order this a la carte, because I can eat the three tacos, but not all the beans and rice, too, and I hate to waste.

This is the tostada dinner, which also comes with beans and rice. Delicious!

As for gaining weight, so far so good. Haven’t done a scale check, but the clothes still seem to fit and the waists aren’t too tight, so I guess I am keeping it off by lugging my baggage here and there, and keeping moving.

  3. I was thinking the Memphis airport BBQ was looking mighty good (even at o-dark thirty, I can pound a beer with a BBQ sandwich!), then I saw this quesedilla! And the tacos! Pulled pork taco’s – that sounds oh so yummy.
