Eating on the Walking Mall of Old Town, Winchester, VA

Tweet

We drove around Winchester to see what it had to offer and discovered their Walking Mall, an entire street that is closed to vehicular traffic. It was great. I just wish I could have walked it. For some reason, my body decided to hurt so bad, I was lucky to get from one spot to another, let alone stroll along many spots. But, we got to eat outside on the patio and I did so enjoy that. The temperatures were perfect and we got to people-watch while we ate really delicious Mexican food. I do intend to go back there, I can tell you. We travel on a tight budget, so we either use coupons that give us 50% off our meals or find specials that fit our budget. This was one of those. El Centro Classic Mexican Food had lunch specials for $7.99 that included unlimited chips and salsa (a dollar less if you didn't want that). I got a burrito with cheese sauce and an enchilada, both with chicken. He got two Chiles Relleno. Both meals came with rice and beans (choice of black beans or refried pintos - we both got pintos). It was the perfect amount of food for lunch. I really want to go back when I feel really good again because I want to walk Loudoun Street and see everything that's there.
