Jacala Mexican Restaurant, the storied eatery where founder Rudolph Quinones claims to have created the puffy taco, was destroyed by an early morning fire,San Antonio firefighters responded to a report of smoke at the site around 6:30 a.m. Thursday, according to KSAT. First responders initially found a small fire inside the structure at 606 West Ave. but soon noticed flames shooting through the roof.
The building's unique construction allowed flames to burn for hours, leaving the 73-year-old eatery gutted by the time the blaze was extinguished, according to the station's report. “Different attic spaces and roofs on top of each other, so it was very difficult for us to get to the fire,” SAFD public information officer Woody Woodward told KSAT. “The restaurant was not open at the time. There was no one inside. We were able to do a full search inside.”
Cynthia Lambert, who'd been running Jacala with the help of her sisters, told the station she's “heartbroken" about the damage.
