That's a veggie plate. *shuddrrrrzzz* How could anyone eat that for breakfast? Gives me the hee-bee-jeebies thinking about it.

Well Hang...anytime I'm in the US it feels weird being in such a big place. Like an insignificant speck.

Skuzzy...JB is right...it was a burrito. The veggie stuff on top was just topping.

I see lettuce and tomatoes. EEEEK!

Curval, an appropriate Mexican breakfast would include Chirizo and eggs, or some sweet corn meal biscuits. The beans would be refried as well.

Dressing? For a burrito? EEEEEKKKK!!!!

You didn't like the fact that you had room to move around in?

No offense, but that looks like a lunch. I could never eat that for breakfast.

I'm a bacon and eggs guy. My favorite is scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese and tobasco sauce. Now that's eating.

On a side note, did you feel funny taking a picture of your food? Did you look around to see if anyone was watching?

Ahh...but we were in NEW Mexico, I imagine that is the difference.

Besides, I'm with Nuke. Bacon and eggs are breakfast, this thing was my wife's.

Lazs...I really liked it. Very cool place.

Harrrrr Nilsen.

I was in Texas for about 30 days last year. Seems that the state has it's own idea of what Mexican food is.

Chirizo is disgusting

The best "Mexican" food experience I had was in Ohio ( rolls eyes) I order the "authentic" Mexican Taco and was surprized to see the 4 foot long thing they called a taco arrive shortly after. it was basically a hamburger wrapped in a tortilla.

A local guy I was meeting for lunch explained that Ohio has a huge Mexican influence

Mexican food varies from area to area. Some of the best I've ever had was in Northern California up by Salinas or Monterey. So. Cal mexican is a little different, and TexMex is a whole other thing....

Bottom line though.... It's all good. Mexico is the France of the Western Hemisphere when it comes to food.

MT...you have GOT to be kidding?

Almost without exception the group I was with all commented that they had had enough Mexican food to last a lifetime in the four days we were there.

In fact, the BEST food I had (other than the Prime Rib mentioned above) was a Prime Rib sandwich on Texas toast smothered in swiss chese and carmalised onions with an au jus dipping sauce. It was the only non-Mexican type food they had at the hotel restaurant.

I love Mexican food.

There is a little place in Scottsdale I used to eat lunch at. *Real* Mexican food.

The menu has cow brains, tongues and intestines among other things.

I usually just had their tacos.......about 4" tortillas, spicy beef, fresh mayonnaise and guacamoli ( so fresh and good that you could eat this by itself) just awesome.
