y Mexican Chicken
Perfect environment to plant a cu ber
warning: I am a caucasian (mostly german, with some Native American mixed in there somewhere) who can barely speak Spanish. While I could, and for periods of time actually do, live off Mexican food, I can't spell some of the names for the life of me. Please excuse my whiteness.
Some good tortilla soup is damn hard to beat. I have a fondness toward the kind Las Palapas serves, but everyone has their own preference. Ironically, the best tortilla soup I've ever had was made at a little German restaurant in Boerne. Go figure.
But as for favorite dish? Basic cheese enchiladas, with a tamale, soft taco, rice and beans. After you eat the enchiladas, attack the tamale and soft taco. Then, put the leftover enchilada sauce, rice, and beans on a flour or corn tortilla. Eat these tortillas de god until either your plate is clean, or you feel so full that you are one bite away from giving birth to a little Mexican food baby via regurgitation, whichever comes first. Here's a trick: it takes the average person roughly 20 minutes to register food in their stomach, so you have exactly that amount of time to eat more than you think you can handle. Impress your friends. And your doctor/mortician..... Blanco Cafe serves some damn good enchiladas, and the homemade tortillas (they make the dough, then place it in a machine to cook) at Pappasitos are hard to beat.
Burritos at Chachos are hard to beat as well. Get them "extra sloppy" so you get it covered with queso AND enchilada sauce. They are huge, you probably won't finish it, but they taste like heaven. Artery-clogging-good, the way Mexican food should be.
Chilis Relleno, fidello, carne guisado, flautas, boracho beans, enchilada casserole... those are all fair game as well.

, I take it back. My favorite Mexican food by far is caldo del 7 mares.
Honorable mention
Delicious Tamales
barbacoa
al Pastor
carne guisada
t-bone steak w/ chiles, onions, beans, and rice
Does steak ranchero count as Mexican food, or is it more of a tex-mex thing? I'm not sure if I should feel like a poser or not when I eat it. Either way, it is damn good, so long as it's not so hot as to disguise the other flavors.
Since someone mentioned breakfast food (though I have eaten fajitas for breakfast), mine would be chorizo and egg tacos - followed very closely by migas.
Puffy tacos
A lot of places use American cheese, cheddar is the one that gets all clumpy and greasy. the melting properties of American are much better then cheddar.
A plate of Barbacoa, with sunny side up eggs, refried beans, and potatoes. With a side of Hot green salsa, and warm tortillas, and a glass of milk.
Enjoy!!
I'm coming over to your house to eat......

Yum--so where do you go for this soup of the seas?
chicken & spinach enchiladas ... or chicken fajitas loaded with grilled onions, cheese, lettuce, tomato, guacamole & sour cream.
I usually get this at various fresh fish markets in Santa Barbara, Redondo Beach, San Pedro, San Diego, etc.
Are you sure that is Mexican food? sounds like something Rachael Ray invented.
When I lived in Seattle, on my birthday my friends took me out to this really nice Mexican restaurant on the lake that had 'tamales espinacas' that I was curious about so I ordered them. They came with a 'rich cream sauce' on top. Only problem was, they put the cream sauce over the tamales -- and didn't take off the husk! Fricken white people!
Another fun Seattle story -- a friend came up to visit and brough a cooler full of tamales on dry ice. People smelled us heating them up in the dorm kitchen and came calling. I let a few try one and this one chick started sucking it out of the open end of the husk, cus she didn't think to unroll it.Good times.
do you still have her number.
And@ Rachel Ray...I can't stand that broad. But I do like spinach & chicken enchiladas..it's served with a cream sauce and they are awesome.
That seafood caldo looks pretty damn good to.
It's great... usually some combination of:

It's the messiest freaking dish on earth though. I've never seen it in Texas, but if you're ever out in Cali or Baja, it's the . There's an Italian soup called Cioppino which is very similar, but more tomatoey and often served with pasta.

Any relation?
