>Mexican and Tex-Mex is on my top 4 list of favorite food.
>In the early 90's I lived down in the Texas valley near McAllen, TX, just a spit'n distance from the Texas/Mexican border.

>Down there it all Mexican. The food was fantastic. That's where I first tasted the green chili. They put it on everything. Enchilada, chicken, tacos, stew. And the Chili con carne, it's not green but boy is it good. Muy Delicioso!

Last night I had Tuna steak with Salsa Verde. Very good even if I did make it myself! :)

>>I spent a few years living in the SouthWest. A lot of time in New Mexico, Arizona, and Colorado. The absolute BEST Mexican (well - not really Mexican since I never found anything similar in all my travels in Mexico) food was a small place in Santa Fe, NM. I never found a place as good as it anywhere. The green chili was something!

>>>>>>I am 40 years old, but still when making a burrito I almost always put too much filling in it. I get too enthused about all of the yummy ingredients that I end of with this overstuff pillow like thing that breaks apart when I eat it. Then just long enough time passes before I have them again that I forget this lesson. I guess it is sort of like making a pizza, it hard to show restraint, but if you do it turns out so good.

>>>My food weakness is sushi and sashimi. There are a lot of sushi buffets in S. Cal and I always seem to eat too much when I go. Sashimi and a cold glass of Miller. Man, that's good. But I don't like the Japanese resaurants too much becuase they're too trendy for me. I go to Korean sashimi restaurants. There's one in Korea-Town in LA called Pusan Restaurant, on the corner if Beverly and Western. Just a hole in the wall, but man are they good.

>>>When I lived in Texas, I loved Tex-Mex food. When the craving hits me, then I know it's time to visit Texas.
