The Food

Now that we are no longer living in Mexico, there are a lot of things I miss, but one of the things I think about on a regular basis, is the food. We got so spoiled by all of the local, fresh, simple foods that were sooo good and all so cheap. While we were living there, I made a conscious decision not to cook. I wanted to sample as much of the local food as I could, and it was a great decision! It was fun to try all of the different dishes, but it was also fun to try some of the staple dishes and many different places. Here is a sampling of what I am missing!

The Mojo de Ajo that we craved, perhaps Maurice the most! Tapatio had the best!
Enchiladas Mineras was the official dish of Guanajuato (I am sure) and Rico would know, had it  at every  restaurant in  town!
Micheladas con Victoria. I had one or two :) Don't let anyone tell you you can't put anything in your beer!
Not the best pic, nor was it the best example, but we had Sopa Azteca everywhere!

Mexico knows how to do breakfast!
And the next time you here "Don't eat the street food" assume that it's because whomever said it, wants to keep it all for himself! The street food was the best! and cheap! Unbelievable...

From a place like this..

You can get the best Tacos al Pastor!

Damonte's favorite
And if you follow Emily's lead, if there is a line, the food has to be good. That's how she found amazing tortas here:
Preparing the Tortas

Mmmm... Tortas!

And following that rule, you have to stop here, right!?!

Gorditas for a crowd.

fresh fruit drinks every day

Maurice, do you like street food?
