Joe,
I have never ate a lot of Mexican or Chinese food. The best Mexican food I ever ate was in a place in Pasadena. We have a couple of places around here that sell it but I just don't care for the way they fix it. And I can't eat the really hot stuff.That place in Pasadena had salsa hot that if you dipped a spoon in it the spoon would melt. But their food was just great and I did eat there quite a few times.
