does /ck/ like comida mexicana?

Mexican food is best food, italian is pretty close. Yes I'm a beaner tacos and burritos al pastor from the Tacos Los Carnales truck by the Ross next to 10 freeway off ramp are orgasmic

Californian here. I've worked in some fantastic restaurants in San Francisco and LA and I've never met anyone in those places who could cook like the folks at mom and pop taquerias and food trucks. Good Mexican food is god tier.

American-mexican food is nothing compared to real mexican food

tfw britbong and if i want to experience authentic Mexican cuisine i have to make it myself and pay a mark up price for shit like corn tortillas.

I hate how delusional people are in thinking that the millions of kebab shops is adding the countries culinary diversity when pubs and older curry houses are closing all over the place.

That and most brits have no clue about east asian and latin food.

Please post mexican dishes you have eaten for a hungry britbong.

what's kind of funny is that in New York, people often refer to Latinos as "Spanish", so there are Dominican delis/restaurants that advertise themselves as "Spanish food"

I'm a New Yorker too, I didn't know "standing online" was a New York thing or that it was particularly wrong, although I never use that expression myself.

The "Spanish" thing really grates my ears though, and even a lot of Latinos in New York call themselves "Spanish" too. Black people and white trash are the worse offenders, though.

>>7910427

Yeah 2nd and 3rd gen Ricans and Dominicans are pretty bad with that, at least in New York.

>>7910634
The owners are from Tijuana I think (very uncommon for NYC Mexican food)

And is adobada the same as al pastor?

>>7910660
Yes. Just a regional name difference. They're also called tacos de trompo as well. Al pastor basically means shepherd style or cooked with a spit.

>>7910672
does an al pastor taco made in Tijuana taste different from one made in Mexico City or Puebla?

I just had a guajolota of i think a tamal with green saice and pork, shit was gut

>>7910941
I would love to try tacos from every region of Mexico and spot the differences.

Does the violence in Oaxaca stem mainly from political instability?

>>7910955
Meat first, veggies later, ditch the tomatos and the cheese and next time fry the tortillas so you get actual tostadas, for texmex its ok i guess. As for the sauces you can make pico de gallo or add lemon juico or just sour cream

>>7910955
Should have stewed the chicken and chopped the tomatos.

>Should have stewed the chicken and chopped the tomatos.
stewed? I was considering steaming the chicken to see if it came out moisture. Only problem with steaming is that it comes out white which doesn't look good, so maybe would then throw it in a pan for a few minutes.

Here is what it looks like after in the steamer when I throw it in a pan (was testing this the other day - pic related). Just doesn't look too hot, but after being in the pan for a bit it looks and tastes grilled so might as well just use the grill I figured. In the pan just added some olive oil and season salt.

>>7910963

How exactly do I do it? Do you cook the chicken up first then add it to the stew? I've never done that before.

is steak in mexican cooking usually well done?

I've never had a taco with real juicy steak

>>7912792
Most beef tacos in mexico are done with thin cuts of beef. Flap beef is prefered but chuck is often used. In higher end places they might even use rib eye but its always cut thin.

https://youtu.be/L0YCZyRpFI8

The guy who cut the meat could have gone thinner.

>>7912819
Is flap Suadero?

And I think the thin cuts go well with tacos, but I had a torta milanesa the other day and the steak was too thin and overcooked for my liking. It was still a good sandwich, and it might have been better if I got it somewhere else.

File: image.jpg (21KB, 331x275px) Image search: [Google]

21KB, 331x275px

>>7912835
No. I think suadero is rose meat in english. Although ive also seen taqueros use brisket flats.

>>7912835
Sorry didnt fully answer you question. Flap beef is ranchera.

>>7912841
>>7912847
what are your favorite taco fillings?

>>7912853
This is probably going to sound like a non-answer but it depends the establishment. Most taqueros specialize in a couple of meats. So I choose based on their specialty. It is a rookie mistake imo to go to a place that specializes in adobada and choose cabeza. Just setting yourself up for disapointment.

>>7912866
most places in the US sell several types

it's not impossible for a place to be very good at several styles. Although for the best al pastor, it's probably best to go to a specialist or else they might not have fresh al pastor ready.

>>7912853
That's a hard question. Mexico is a pork nation and they specialize in a lot of pork fillings so I would say chicharon prensado/moronga. If not that then smoked marlin with a sweet chipotle sauce.

>>7912819
Ive eaten NY steak carne asada and it was prettty thin. The majority would probably be chuck or sirloin followed by skirt and ny

>>7912888
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBCZt3LJ-3Y

and the carne asada here is GOD tier

>>7912870
I understand that they sell different types of fillings. However, they usually specialize in one or two, with the rest being there to give people choices. I agree that 1 place can be good at several fillings. However, when you want a specialty filling such as Al pastor, adobada, carnitas, suadero, lengua, cabeza, etc. I would only get it if they specialize in that filling. If i am trying a new place that I havent researched my go to order is asada and chorizo. These two fillings are hard to fuck up, but very difficult to get good. Sometimes I will ask the taquero, if he says everything is good then ill ask for just asada and chorizo. If he actually tells me we specialize in cabeza then ill try the cabeza.

The biggest mistake people make imo is not asking the guy what is their specialty. Or another question i ask is what do you sell the most. If its asada then it just might be that its a typical taqueria that has lots of american patrons. Also, look for the vertical spit.

>>7912918
Most places in the US, if you were to ask, would say they sell mostly asada and pollo. Those seem to even be the go to for Mexicans/Mexican-Americans in the US.

The truck I go to, I see a vertical spit but no meat in there, so I'm guessing the al pastor is pre made

>>7912922
If there is no spit then there is no al pastor.

>>7912922
oh and so far from that place I've had asada, pollo, al pastor, tinga, carnitas, and tilapia

The only one I didn't really like from them was carnitas. It wasn't bad, but nothing special either.

>>7912926
No they do have a spit, and I ordered al pastor from there. But I don't think they sell enough al pastor to constantly have the meat in the spit.

>>7912922
See. The fact that chicken is the most sold tells me two things. There other fillings are not great and the patrons are more americanized or white.

>>7912928
Carnitas is overrated. Good Carnitas is good but so is every other dish made well.

>>7912931
Nah, the majority of the patrons are fob Mexicans

I think I see most of them getting asada, though.

But the asada and tilapia are really good, and the al pastor is pretty good too but could be better.

>>7912933
Yeah I don't think it's ideal as a taco filling

>>7912931
Do people not eat chicken tacos in Mexico?

>>7912934
Are you talking brick and mortar taqueria or carts, trucks etc. ive never seen a great taco spot that sells both fish and meat/poultry options. Are you in Ca.? Might be a different taco culture.

>>7912945
Very very rare. like maybe in Mexicali and Sinaloa, but sinaloa is mostly whole chicken cooked on a grill then made into tacos


>>7912946
Think he lives in NYC. The place sounds like one of those places that sell some fillings to attract americans
btw here is a good article on tacos in the US and pretty good to check if anyone love tacos in general

http://firstwefeast.com/eat/2015/07/obscure-mexican-taco-styles

>>7912946
I'm talking about a truck

I'm in New York, the taco culture here is Mexico City/Puebla style.

>>7912945
Not really. At least where im from. Usually its pork (al pastor, carnitas, chorizo) then beef (tripas, cabeza, lengua, suadero), then probably goat(birria). Chicken usually not served. In fact i cant think of one taqueria in my hometown that serves it.

>>7912958
Chicken is my favorite kind of meat, so I don't mind getting a chicken taco even if it's not authentic. But I do try to stay true to authenticity in every other way.

Oh and the place is literally called Tacos El Chicken, and the owners are from Mexico City
>>7912958
Perhaps they have more variety in fillings to attract Americans. But like I said, the place I go to still has mostly Mexican customers.

I think it's good to have variety from a business standpoint, if they only sold carne asada tacos I would go there less often.

>>7912964
Interesting, considering pollo is sold in the vast majority of American taquerias.

What part of Mexico are you in?

>>7912964
you guys are forgetting Tinga

I tried it and I liked it, but it was a little too rich. I guess shredded chicken absorbs a shitton of juices.

>>7912981
Tinga can be made with pork or chicken.. but yeah you're right. another dish is rajas y crema some times made with chicken. the grilled chicken taco is almost non existent in Mexico.

>>7912968
Just looked up Tacos El Chicken and I have to say it is organized more like a roach coach style truck than a taqueria. IME taquerias usually sell only tacos and maybe mulitas. Tortas, burritos, mariscos, etc are done my their own seperate establishments. I know that in Mexico city tortas are huge so im sure there are tons of taquerias who do both well.

>>7912981
Tinga at least in my experience was more of a restaurant dish rather than a taqueria filling.

>>7909587
if it aint taco bell you can go straight to hell

if it aint del taco then 10ft higher paco

>>7913000
does it have its own website?

And yeah it's organized like a roach coach style truck in the sense they sell a lot of different things.

But you have to remember that this is the US, and to get by you're better of having variety rather than just selling 2 kinds of tacos. Especially considering it's one of the only places to get real tacos in the neighborhood.

>>7913000


Here's a good example of what a good truck serves. They are all seafood.

>>7913009
not sure if trying to be funny or low brow redneck

>>7913010
Not true. The most popular birreria in Chicago sells only Birria, the most popular fish taco in LA sells only fish taco, the most popular mariscos in San Diego only sells mariscos, not beef chicken or pork. people go where the best food is at

>>7913024
yeah there are some specialty places, but they're not the norm. And best is subjective.

The taqueria with the best reviews on Yelp in my city is a stand at the Chelsea Market and they sell 4 different kinds of tacos, including chicken, the owners are from Tijuana (very uncommon for here).

>>7913010
There are a ton of places in the us that specialize in just a couple of fillings in Ca.

>>7913013

Pic didnt show up.

>>7913040
California is more saturated with Mexican food so you'll see more places like that, however taquerias that sell multiple fillings are still very common.

>>7913030
I checked that placeand it only sells 3 so you pretty much make my statement more clear that the fewer the better

>>7913013
http://www.yelp.com/biz/mariscos-german-lonchera-taco-truck-san-diego

>>7913048
I thought it sold asada, pollo, adobada, and nopal

And the place gets a lot of hype because it's in the Chelsea market

>>7913046
Of course most taco places are going to be mediocre. The top tier places usually have a specialty that dominates their menu. maybe new york gets the shit end of the stick when it comes to tacos. While california gets the shot end when it comes to bbq.

>>7913059
nah there are plenty of good tacos here

but like I said, the market isn't saturated enough for a place that sells 2 fillings to thrive

>>7913053
>nopal
You do know that's just a substitute for non meat eaters, right?

>>7913065
it still counts as a filling

>>7913063
It isn't just 2 tacos its doing what they're good at. A good taquero isn't gonna sell tilapia tacos when he knows how to make good al pastor and asada

throw the grill on high and sear the chicken off on both sides and then lower the grill down and toss them on the upper for a few minutes to finish.

poaching the chicken in a broth and shredding the meat, then sauce the meat would be a better alternative for tostadas though. Corn tortillas are better also.

>>7913088
It's not that difficult to be good at least a few taco fillings

Aguachile is probably my most favorite mexican dish. So simple but so fucking good. There's two places locally that make really good aguachile; one adds either oranges or mangoes to theirs (in addition to the usual ingredients) which tastes fantastic; the other place makes a more traditionally basic aguachile, but their sauce is the fucking BEST. Either one, I'll eat it all.
Pic related, but just a random google pic

>>7913051
Fuck yes, I want to go there. I live in NorCal, but we make trips south occasionally. I'll have to find it.
It all looks awesome, but when I saw the pic with the El Pato can in the background, I KNEW they know what they're doing.

Ive tried one with squid ink and the green one with apple and a red one with soy/maggi. It is one of my fav dishes.

>>7915321
Not that difficult for an experienced Mexican cook, I mean.

NYC's restaurant industry runs off the backs of cooks from Mexico, so a lot of these guys can cook a very wide range of things. I don't see why it would be hard for someone like that to master 4-5 taco fillings.

>>7915422
Not the guy you replied to but have you been to the Oaxacan place yet. I'm still waiting on a review.

>>7915436
No sadly, it's kind of far from me and I don't drive, but I can't wait to go once I have free time.

I want to find someone else to go with because I'm too insecure to eat at a waitstaffed restaurant by myself.

THE SHELL IS STILL ON

>>7910921
you amerifag. TACOS DO NOT HAVE LETTUCE!

>>7916087
A little bit of roughage on your taco is good for you. I usually make a leafy green and herb slaw

>>7909601

This. Had to learn most of that shit on my own when I moved to the east coast. NYC actually has very good Mexico city style food, and little of good Mexican street food unless you want to trek far into Queens.

>>7912928
I don't know how it is in the US but in Mexico we have places that specialize in ONLY selling carnitas, I don't know of any place that sells carnitas along with other tyoes of tacos.

Also, carnitas is a whole genre of tacos consisting of pork shoulder, skin, uterus, calf and more. whenever I see americans talking about carnitas it's usually the lamest part: maciza.

>>7915422

The problem is actually not the cooks - it's finding customers.

The Mexican population in NYC is pretty new, and is from all over Mexico. I had cooks from Mexico city look at me like I was crazy when I refried beans. The white population here doesn't have much of a taste for real Mexican food (they prefer Chipotle and don't like spicy for the most part). So restaurants with any regional twist can't find enough customers.

It's getting better, but seems to just be the same asada/carnitas/lengua tacos that anything bigger than a truck has to do to appeal to enough people. Which sucks, because I'd kill for real Sonoran tortillas at this point.

>>7910427
this post randomly reminded me of a dude i knew in miami who made the biggest deal of being "spanish"
"ohh well actually im a spaniard~ i only eat the finest tapas from españa~ hahah anon you're the only brown person in my house" he didn't even know spanish and subsisted exclusively off of american fast food

>>7916112

In the US it's very rarely on its own - and you're lucky if you can even find Michoacan style carnitas cooked in lard, and not just slow cooked pork.

My boss is from Mexico and I finally got the chance to ask him about his home country's cuisine. I was surprised to find out that chili was never even eaten in Mexico and was invented in Texas.

>>7910427

It's a Puerto Rican thing, they generally hate most other Latinos.

Which is funny, because white people outside NYC just think they're Mexican.

>>7916127

What part of Mexico? Cuisine varies widely there.

>>7916123
>In the US it's very rarely on its own
Not where I live

>>7916134
He was born in a small village but he traveled all over the country in his 20s. He said he never saw chili there; the first time he encountered it was at a Wendy's in the United States in his 30s, hah

>>7916135

San Diego, LA, or San Antonio?

>>7916140

Yeah, chilli comes from the desert states.

>>7916112
The place where I have carnitas do the same and I got costilla which was nice. The style they do is not as pink as the one in Michoacan and put coke in it

>>7916141
Orange County

>>7911047
I haven't had a lot of Salvadoran food besides pupusas and tamales in banana leaves, but they've all been delicious. And of course, the glorious Salvadoran crema, which is best crema.

>>7916103
Mexicans are all over NYC now

Speaking of carnitas,if anyone wants to make faux carnitas, here you go.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-19/make-this-now-cosme-s-showstopping-duck-carnitas-tacos

I would eat this with some salsa macha or manzano chile escabeche desu

>>7916140
Yeah I'm Mexican and the only time I've had Chili was in Spain at a Mexican themed dinner, heh.

They also had quesadillas made with queso cabrales(a regional Spanish cheese) which were great.

>>7916118
Most Mexicans in NYC are from Puebla, Mexico City, and the surrounding areas. It's not common to find a NYC Mexican from Sonora or Yucatan.

I wouldn't say white people in NYC prefer crap like Chipotle, it's just that it's only been in recent years where a lot of real Mexican food has existed. I'm guessing that Mexicans only recently had enough capital In NYC to open up restaurants in white neighborhoods.

>>7916129
I know a lot of 2nd generation Central Americans, South Americans, and Dominicans who also call themselves "Spanish". It's just ignorance regional to New York.

I want to eat some flour gorditas so bad. I kinda wish there was some Mexican style tapas restaurant where I live focusing mainly on antojitos such as tostadas and gorditas as well as other plates as various chile rellenos and slow braised meats. Fuck. ;;;

>>7916118
Oh and there is a Oaxacan restaurant in The Bronx called "La Morada" which is critically acclaimed

>>7916168

Good taco trucks don't seem to be. Live in Brooklyn and work in the city, and seems they got pushed out of Red Hook.

>>7916182

Yeah - most Mexican places for years were generally run by white people from the Southwest, or people from Spain.

Lots of people from the East coast really don't have a taste for Mexican food yet though - I worked at a gringo as hell spot, and can't tell you how many times I had middle aged ladies send back the salsa (which was as hot as spicy ketchup to me) as too hot, then talk about "how awwwwthentic the Guhwackamole" was.

>>7916291
You can find at least a few taquerias in areas with a lot of Mexicans

My neighborhood of Kensington just got a taco truck recently, and it's pretty good.

>>7916212

Thanks - I'll check it out sometime. But while I love central American cuisine, big tortillas and carne asada are home cooking to me and just can't get them here. There's one places I've found that lists 'sonoran' on their menu, but their tortillas are the Texas style raised ones.

>>7916306

Actually used to live on Ocean and Beverly. Where's the truck?

>>7916300
I think some South Americans owned Mexican restaurants as well in NYC. My mom told me about a Mexican restaurant she knew of that was owned by an Ecuadorian.

And yeah of course a lot of uncultured people will have lame palates like that, but at the same time NYC has a lot of foodies and people who love real Mexican food.

I find it funny that people always praise California over NY for Mexican food, even though a lot of Californian Mexican food is Americanized shit like Carne Asada fries.

>>7916310
Kek, it's on Beverly near Walgreen's (formerly Silver Rod)

It's called "Tacos El Chicken", I think it's pretty good. Probably one of the few real Mexican options in that neighborhood, despite there being a shitton of Mexicans.

>>7916315

Meh, Mexico City food is Frenchified. Al Pastor is Mediterranian adapted to pork. Aside from tamales, it's all adapted from historical influences.

Cal Mex and Tex Mex grew up the same time as other Mexican styles. Personally I love Carne Asada fries, but to each their own.

>>7916308
There are very few Sonorans or North Mexicans in general in NYC, that might be difficult to find in the area.

>>7916329
I'm not knocking Carne Asada fries, I'm just saying that there are people who automatically assume Mexican food in California and the Southwest is automatically better than Mexican food in the Northeast.

In addition to having great tacos in NYC, I also had great tacos at a food court in Philly.

>>7916335

In my experience it generally is - however that's typically a supply problem (specific chilis and other ingredients harder to find, fewer good local tortillarias, etc). But depends what you're looking for as well.

>>7916359
Well I'm not denying that California has more variety, there are way more Mexicans there and more of Mexico is represented in the Mexican population.

But that doesn't mean that there isn't mediocre Mexican in California and great Mexican in NYC.

>>7916359
And in Cali, what styles are the most common? I'm guessing Cal-Mex, Baja, and Jalisco.

>>7916329
>mexican food is frenchfied
Mexican food is fusion.

Yeah honestly one city in California has better Mexican food than all of NYC And that's if you take away san diego and LA

>>7916388
What's that article trying to prove? Of course LA has more variety

>>7916401
>I find it funny that people always praise California over NY for Mexican food, even though a lot of Californian Mexican food is Americanized shit like Carne Asada fries.

NY is not even top 10 destination when it comes to Mexican food.

>>7917705
I get what you're saying, but authentic in the sense that it's not taco bell or yummy taco crap is important to me

There's a small chain of Mexican restaurants by me called "Green Cactus", I'm guessing it's not owned by Mexicans but their tacos are made in an authentic fashion for the most part, so I still like if. I also can't tell if the workers are actually Mexican or Central American.

It's the closest thing to real Mexican food near me so I like it, it's pretty tasty.

These threads are always the best.

>>7917822

>authentic
>real Mexican

These terms don't mean what you think they mean, as Mexico doesn't have only one cuisine.

>>7917881
And some Americanized Mexican food doesn't resemble food from anywhere in Mexico.

I'm debating making the trip later to go to the Chelsea Market and try some of the most critically acclaimed tacos in NYC, if train tickets weren't so expensive I'd definitely do it.

>>7917932

Uh what place in Chelsea Market has critically acclaimed tacos?

>>7917949
I think it's called Los Tacos #1, it seems to have the highest ratings on yelp and google for any Mexican place in NYC

>>7917956

That's one of the big problems with Yelp though - given NYC doesn't have 'good' Mexican food, the reviews are likely to be counterproductive. A place with a bunch of 3 stars "this isn't Chipotle!" reviews would be better, IMHO.

>>7917985
This made me kek but that's not true

I'm guessing you live in Manhattan, and if so you're close enough to at least one of: Mott Haven, Jackson Heights, Sunset Park, all contain Mexican enclaves with great Mexican food.

>>7916482
i can appreciate that. places these days have huge menus, and i just want to get the most popular thing if i dont recognize anything on the menu

>>7917992
Eh I don't know if I agree, there are a lot of Mexicans as well as people who appreciate real Mexican food in NYC.

A restaurant known for its moles and highly regarded can't possibly be bad.

>>7917956
As a Mexican who has tried Mexican food in NYC. Los Tacos is legit.

NYC Mexican food isn't bad at all, it's just that it mostly revolves around antojitos

>>7918020

Sure, but my worry with Yelp reviews is it's not the majority, and Yelp gives you a majority opinion. A bunch of FLIDs saying the salsa wasn't too hot is not a great recommendation, you know?

>A restaurant known for its moles and highly regarded can't possibly be bad.

I'd agree on that. There's actually a place pretty good for exactly that on Graham Ave in Brooklyn.

>>7918032
Where in Mexico are you from? And how many places in NYC did you try?

>>7918035
You gotta read the individual reviews, if someone says "wow their mole poblano is just like the mole poblano I got in Puebla", that's a good sign.

What place on Graham Ave? Is it run by Oaxacans?

>>7918035
Oh and

>FLID

kek, I live on Long Island myself and the draught of actual Mexican food is serious. If I ever befriend a Mexican person in NYC (I've only met 2 Mexicans my entire time living on LI), I would beg them to talk to their family about opening a restaurant in Baldwin, New York.

>>7918043

Mesa Coyoacan. Very solid higher end.

Not sure who runs it, haven't been by in a few years, but the Mole was spot on.

>>7918069
Is it higher end in the sense that it's a wait staffed restaurant and not a taco stand, or is it actually expensive?

I think the best kind of spots are the mid range ones that sell more than just antojitos, but aren't too expensive or experimental.

>>7918075
>pujol
>nyc
pick 1

>>7918068

You've got the same problem as I described above though - you have to move the food so far to meet the local taste to have customers that you might as well not.

>>7918075
A half hour subway ride is nothing unless you're a rich asshole that can't evenly be minorly inconvenienced.

Also I ride the subway all the time and have never had any serious inconvenience.

But if you refuse to leave Lower Manhattan, I can't force you to do otherwise of course, I'm just saying it's silly to act like going to the outer boroughs is the biggest task in the world.

>>7918094
There is a demand for Mexican food that's not being met, it's a better business idea to open a restaurant here than to open up a place in Corona or Sunset Park and have a million competitors. An Indian restaurant opened up here and everyone loves it. Believe it or not, Long Island isn't just a bunch of white trash retards.

>>7918095
I think you confused it with cosme. Ive been wainting to try their duck carnitas

>>7918127
Well if you're not satisfied by the Mexican food here that's one thing, but you were making it seem like leaving Lower Manhattan is a huge chore. It does not take long at all to go from say, Lower Manhattan to Western Brooklyn, or from Upper Manhattan to The Bronx. Ym

I get that NYC is not the best at everything of course, but I'm still generally satisfied with whatever ethnic food I eat. Is NYC the best at anything? Maybe diners and ghetto bodega food? Pizza in general bores me so I don't care too much for that.

>>7918138
That random "ym" is a typo

>>7918152
The Upper East Side is like a 10-15 minute subway ride from Mott Haven.

And the L train isn't the only train that goes from Manhattan to Brooklyn. I take the F train from Kensington, which is several stops into Brooklyn, and get to the LES in like 20 minutes.

>>7918146
Unacceptable

>>7918179
Well I used specific points, I know that not everywhere in Manhattan is close to Mott Haven, but everywhere in Manhattan is close to an outer borough one way or another.

I've never had a problem with weekend service, maybe one time in my life I had to take a shuttle bus.

>>7918205
Some outer borough restaurants will be easy to get to, others will not

>>7918205
Oh and you also claimed that only NYU neighborhoods have people walking around late at night, that's such bullshit

I was deep in the Upper West Side the other night at 4 AM and there were tons of people walking around.

From the banter in this thread I couldn't imagine a NYC /ck/ meetup as I already want to murder you fucks for being so needlessly argumentative.

>>7918242
I thought you were the same guy who tried to claim that NYC is empty after midnight

>>7918251
Well yeah, not every location could support a linr at 4AM, but there is a considerable amount of activity on the main streets of any NYC neighborhood I've been to. That's atypical for a US city, even Philly looks deserted after midnight except for the streets that have bars.

>>7918080

Why are we fighting amongst ourselves instead of making flyovers cry?

>>7918636
>>7918643

I was gonna say - our problem is NOT that we can't have world class Mexican. NYC has amazing high end Mexican.

The point that's subpar is the cheap street food. Filiberto's level and below just doesn't exist conveniently here yet.

there is no cheap street food really, tacos in NYC run for like 3 dollars even in Mexican neighborhoods. So 3 tacos and a drink is like 10 dollars.

>>7918718
there's good midrange too I mean, like the place La Morada I keep mentioning

I hope that people aren't actually scared of going to the Bronx in 2016

>>7918885

Yeah. I like LA Superior when they opened - but pretty quick prices doubled and the wait went up to hours.

>>7918893
Why are even the trucks so expensive? Is it because of high permit prices or something? Or does the lack of saturation of Mexican food allow them to charge more? I'm still fine with paying the 2.50, it's easily the best option for quick street food.

>>7919605
Wakefield is a pain in the ass to get to and there's not much there of interest, but I'm not afraid to go there. I actually like walking around Mott Haven.

My in-laws are Salvi. I'm allergic to bananas, so I can't have anything with plantains (which appears to be a staple of their food), but the things I've had that they claim to be Salvadoran were great.

If he's traveling from Britain, NYC is closer and there's plenty of good Mexican food there. Plus NYC has a lot of other good food.

For anyone traveling from another country to NYC, I'd recommend the following, in no particular order

1. Chinese
2. Japanese
3. Mexican
4. Diner
5. Italian
6. Fat sandwich from a ghetto bodega
7. Some sort of Americana type place
6. Jamaican

Shut up pretentious faggot, it wasn't suppose to be an end all. But those are all genres of food that a European tourist is less likely to have all of where he/she lives.

>>7918910
2.50 for a taco is ridiculous. 1.50 is already an expensive taco, especially from a non hipster taco truck.

>>7921599
That's the going price around here, it's probably more expensive to do business here than Texas, even for a truck.

Also I have to imagine the dollar tacos are skimpy.

>>7921599
>1.50 is already an expensive taco
no its not. anywhere that's selling you tacos for anything lower most likely isn't doing it right

>>7921647
I have to imagine they're cutting corners somewhere. I'm guessing they just don't put a lot of meat in.

I ate at Mazatlan beach in Mexico, ordered some fish tacos and ceviche, they were good

>>7922056
Was it safe? Mazatlan has some nice looking women

>>7922070
Yeah, it is safe and Mexican girls have always held a special place in my heart, Damn.

Unlikely. Most supported story is there from Juarez. So Texan, maybe, but not "American".

West Texas should be considered different in the context of Mexican food, since it's been inhabited by Mexicanos since before independence. Same with New Mexico.

>>7925818
West Texas is the devil's country. I feel sorry for anyone who lives there. Also, South Texas is better for Mexican food by far.

>>7925849

Sorry, I mean West and South - the part of Texas that is Latino, not Southern. Includes the Hill Country, basically everything west of Houston and Dallas.

>>7925859
Well, I agree with that. When you get as far north as Waco, and east to Houston and up, that particular northeastern section of Texas is where Mexican food goes to die a horrible death.

>>7925878

Yeah, that's just Alabama shifted to the west.

This looks so fucking good. Everything in this thread looks so good. There's a place in tallahassee that serves what I think is the closest thing to real mexican food I've had but it did not look like this.

I'm Mexican. I've had authentic and homecooked food from where my parents live in Toluca, as well as a lot of the more regional foods in LA. I really think it's overrated.

Not only that, but it's generally incredibly unhealthy to eat on a regular basis, and among the reasons that Mexico has the highest adult obesity rates. (America, eat your heart out. You've been dethroned.) Though that's not entirely the fault of Mexicans, since the entire cuisine has been Paula Deen'd over the years.

That being said, eating my mom's mole or pozole still triggers comforting childhood memories, so it still hits a sweet spot for me every now and then. I still try to get more variety in my diet, and I tend to enjoy other kinds of food more nowadays.

Inb4 a bunch of angry beaners rag on me for this post. Search your hearts and stop being so fucking haughty about your own culture. Modesty never killed anyone. (This is another problem with Mexicans; everyone's so stubborn and full of pride, but that could be a discussion for another day entirely.) Anyway, those are my two cents.

>>7927095
The obesity epidemic started with NAFTA, Mexibro. This was probably before you were born, but it used to be that Walmart didn't have stores all over Mexico, shilling their obesity-causing wares across the land.

>>7927110
I know that, and I noted it. The Americanization problem isn't unique to Mexico. It's happened everywhere, but for whatever reason, it hit Mexico especially hard. Mexico isn't completely hands-free on the problem is what I'm trying to say.

>>7927118
The irony of the situation is that in turn, Americans got suddenly familiar with the existence of vegetables. Although we still have our fair share of flyovers who fly into a rage at the sight of an avocado. Those people are sliding into irrelevance though, their adulation for Trump is just a symptom of their desperation. They'll be extinct soon, and non-anglo culture, including but not limited to Mexican immigrant culture (which I fully welcome) will be the first thing people think of when they think "American", instead of the pink freckled fat face and blond hair, as is erroneously thought of as American in the present day, at least abroad where old stereotypes are ingrained.

Anyway I'm sorry about the walmarts, especially the one in teotihuacan. Absolutely disgusting. For what it's worth my city fought hard and succeeded in keeping them out, but only because we have wealthy and powerful people here.

>>7927137
not him, but, are there any targets in NYC yet?

I'm guessing it's a little better than Walmart, I know there's one literally right over the Queens border in Valley Stream

>>7927137
Mexibro here, if you're white, that's a very self-berating post. You should uncuck yourself. Anglo culture isn't all bad. It's really just Walmarts and bad Hollywood movies, among other things.

These bad things happened when the US rubbed its dirty hands all over Mexico, and I don't necessarily thirst for the same to happen to the US in turn. Cultures each have their strong points that should be cherished, which is why I do feel remorse seeing other Mexicans acting the way they do sometimes. Almost none of my extended family in Mexico like trying non-Mexican food, and I think that's a shame is all.

This is definitely starting to go on an off-topic tangent, though. Sorry about that.

>>7927159
non-mexican foods are very popular in Mexico, at least in the cosmopolitan areas

>>7927158
not in the city but there are some in the outer boroughs
>>7927159
why would you assume I'm white? I don't have a problem with anglo culture, I have a problem with american culture being controlled by paranoid racist anglo culture running around proposing dangerous new laws like a drunk toddler with a gun. once the white anglo population finally accepts it needs to play by the same rules as everyone else, we have less of a problem. like taking the gun away from the drunk baby.

sounds like you're one of the white mexicans, white mexicans are some of the most openly racist people I've ever met. some really hot women though.

>>7927179
And what a coincidence that the cosmopolitan areas have the worst actual Mexican food. You need to head out to the boonies to get the good stuff.

>>7927180
From my experience, Mexicans in general are racist. Still sounds like you've got a problem with white people to be honest, which would ironically make you racist yourself.

>>7927180
I find the white Latino thing to be a meme, I knew a white Chilean and a white Uruguayan guy, they both identified more with Latinos than whites

But on 4chan you have retards who secretly want that sweet mestiza pussy but have to stay in their white supremacist character so they'll pretend to only like the white ones.

They're also insecure so they'll pretend Latin America is ruled by white people even though every mestizo majority country in Latin America has a mestizo president.

>>7927190
are you an Uncle Juan?

>>7927195
Nah man, just tired of bullshit is all.

>>7927190
I've got lots of white friends and relatives

they're not the ones I have a problem with

if it makes me "racist" to say that the main people in this country who have a problem with me are white people, then sure, call me racist

the fact is, those people are a problem that needs solving. whether it's breeding them out of existence, voting them into irrelevance, or letting in hordes of nonwhites to obliterate their culture, any of the above solutions is agreeable to me.

>>7927198
the bullshit goes both ways

on one hand, Mexico and even Mexican-Americans to an extent need to get their shit together, on another hand, Trump supporting white retards are pathetic

>>7927203
what race are you?

>>7927180
the outer boroughs are still the city of New York

>>7927203

Starting to sound like Hitler desu senpai.

>>7927208
not white. that's good enough for the trumpies
>>7927210
no, the ones who sound like hitler are the ones proposing mass roundups of brown people and putting people of the wrong religion on government watch lists

I'm proposing a humane, sustainable, long term solution that involves no implied or actual force, coercion, or other ethically questionable means

simply letting nature take its course

>>7927223
be more specific

>>7927223
You're still advocating the annihilation of an entire race. Sounds pretty fucking Hitler to me, bro.

If you reread my post, I'd rather we all get along and coexist, not entirely annihilate one another and have an entire culture replaced.

Really, get your head out of your ass.

Nah, you're an idiot and I almost feel bad that my post reached the eyes of someone so full of hate. You're just as bad as the people you're raging about.

Mexican food is only overrated if you live an area where Mexican food is limited to a few dishes in flyover states, even in Mexico. There is better Mexican food in LA then in san luis potosi, morelos baja sur etc etc
