Horchata near convention center?

[kallisti]

Is there a place within walking distance of the convention center that has horchata? Also, I'm a little unclear on which amazing TexMex places are nearby. I don't have a car, so walking distance is the key factor here. I'd do a short cab ride, but walking distance is preferable :) Thanks!

Can you educate me and tell me what it is? Guess I've been missing out

It's rice 'milk' with cinnamon. Mr Natural a couple blocks down Chavez has a great version.

I don't see horchata nearly as much as I did in California. You probably won't find it until you walk under I35 across Cesar Chavez, and then a few blocks. Preferably in the daytime.

The only place I can think might have it within walking distance is Marisco Grill at 6th near Brazos. All the Taqueria Arandas's will have it. Nearest is at 7th and ...east of Comal.

I didn't get a chance to try to find it at Marisco Grill or anywhere else downtown.... I had it Monday night at Bejuco's, La Catedral de Mariscos, at 2711 E Cesar Chavez. It was exactly what I wanted, and we had two glasses each, which was the last of the horchata she had. Yum! Now I need to make some or find some here in the DC area.
