Fuzzys Tacos in Plano Texas

Fuzzy Tacos - Plano TX - Butt Burning Sauce

©2010 - Tom Branch

You really have to love Texas. Stockton and Denise Helbing introduced us to Fuzzy’s Taco at his “surprise” birthday party this year. The only local location was on the far west side of Dallas and a bit too far to drive.

Somebody must have heard us complaining because Fuzzy’s has opened a location in Plano near US75 and Park. We dropped in the other day for lunch and I chuckled when I saw the bottle of Butt Burnin’ Hot Sauce. I tried some and they’re not kidding!

The food is great and far different from other Mexican fast food places. Fuzzy’s has more than a dozen locations in Texas and one in Madison, Wisconsin. Madison? Who knows.

NTTA To Open First Direct Connect Ramp at SH121 and US75

The North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA) will open the first direct-connect ramp at the State Highway 121, the Sam Rayburn Tollway(SRT) and US 75, North Central Expressway (Central) interchange on October 17th.

Sam Rayburn Tollway

The new ramp will allow motorists traveling on northeast-bound SRT in Allen and McKinney to directly access northbound U.S. 75.

“The opening of this direct-connector is a momentous occasion for the NTTA and for the public, since this new ramp will vastly improve traffic flow through the area,” said Elizabeth Mow, NTTA director of project delivery.

More developments are coming soon: By the end of November, the NTTA expects to open another major direct-connector on the SRT/U.S. 75 interchange. This one will directly link southbound U.S. 75 with southwest bound SRT. Details will be announced when the opening schedule is finalized.

The NTTA will open the SRT/U.S. 75 interchange in phases during the next several months. All major traffic movements are expected to be open on the interchange in January.
