Description

A tiny gas station and market anchoring the outside corner of an otherwise nondescript strip mall has become a center of natural living near White Rock Lake. Good 2 Go Tacos may no longer be serving its wildly popular and inventive gourmet tacos out of the back of the store, but that hasn't kept Green Spot owner Bruce Bagelman from staffing the kitchen with a new staff led by chef Kirk Childress and offering standard breakfasts, specialty tacos and a smattering of salads, sandwiches and artisanal products. These can be yours, whether you've come to fill up your electric hybrid compact with biodiesel or peruse the Saturday market for local eggs, meats and crafts while sipping on a cup of fair-trade coffee.







  • 2008 | Best Road Trip Fuel

    So you gotta get out of town. The car is packed and ready to go, and now you need fuel and snacks. Don't turn to the usual Fritos and Orange Crush. The Green Spot has even better fuel for the drive. Try some Kashi cookies, Bare Naked granola, a bottled Izze or fountain Blue Sky soda, and don't forget some Seventh Generation paper products just to be on the safe side. Plus, you don't have to feel so bad about the growing bag of trash in the car--the Green Spot's fountain drink containers... More »

    So you gotta get out of town. The car is packed and ready to go, and now you need fuel and snacks. Don't turn to the usual Fritos and Orange Crush. The Green Spot has even better fuel for the drive. Try some Kashi cookies, Bare Naked granola, a bottled Izze or fountain Blue Sky soda, and don't forget some Seventh Generation paper products just to be on the safe side. Plus, you don't have to feel so bad about the growing bag of trash in the car—the Green Spot's fountain drink containers and straws are all compostable and made from corn. And if you're getting behind the wheel of a diesel, Bruce Bagelman and Alvaro Garza's pumps can supply you with B5 biodiesel, or B100 from a separate straight-to-vehicle pump (they also offer basic gasoline). Add in the vegan options and fresh, gourmet local snacks and you might be in for the healthiest road trip fill-up you've ever had. When it comes to naturals and affordable alt-fuels, Dallas folks can finally stop asking, "Are we there yet?"
