Carnitas are fabulous!
Carne Asada is great Barbacoa ROCKS!!! I love enchilada's and fish taco's too! Now that I think about it I think I should have been born Mexican!!! There isn't anything I don't like from a mexican restaurant! |

My new favorite is Valcanito. Yummy! The waitress turned me on to that. Try it next time. Scrumptious!

Yeah, all Mexican food is pretty great and you should really try all the different varieties from all around the country, especially things you don't find much in the US. Cochinita Pibil from the Yucatan is very, very good. Tlayudas ("Oaxaca pizza") also extremely delicious!
But for me the best is mixiote (meesh-yeOH-tay)! This is a dish of either chicken, rabbit or lamb covered in an adobo or red Oaxaca mole sauce often with chopped nopal added, wrapped in a thin "paper" peeled from the maguay cactus and slow cooked in the oven. I prefer the lamb although for large groups the chicken is adequate too, but lamb is best. It is excellent served with Mexican white rice but really best eaten in tacos! Mmmmm Boy am I hungry! It is common from the state of Hidalgo down into Oaxaca, but you can find it all over the D.F. Most neighborhood markets will have a stand that sells "take away" freshly cooked for about $7.00 per pound! (or large tacos for $1.00) If you love Mexican food, you are really gonna love mixiote! |
