Many Mexican restaurants seem to fall into the same trap that Chinese
ones, do and serve "americanized" versions of dishes, all
over-smothered in cheese and sour cream.
Yes, we used to go to a really great Taqueria that served well prepared
nicely seasoned food that wasn't smothered in cheese. Another family
member took over the business and quickly turned it into an industrial
style Mexican restaurant that you can find next to any shopping mall.
Quoted message said:I have traveled a lot in Mexico and of course the cuisines vary
widely, but the use of fresh ingredients, be it seafood, meats or
poultry prepared so that the spices and other ingredients used accent
and complement the foods, rather than only encasing them in fats, is
common to all of themBoron.
