    Just in general. They are made fresh and typically less dry.

    i'm sure your average Minnesota "mexican" restaurant would just use store bought trash. The fake "mexican" food I had in Louisville Kentucky tasted like ing chef boyardee ravioli in a slightly different shape (I ordered the beef enchiladas). Note to self, never ever get "mexican" food in a state that doesn't actually border Mexico.

    You're probably full of . Mexicans move all over the place. I've had great Mexican food in Colorado, Louisiana, and Arkansas. In fact, if you go to a reasonably successful Mexican restaurant somewhere, they should be pretty good.

    And Oklahoma

    I can see Colorado for sure because of the influx, and possibly OKC because of the proximity, but... the Deep South? I doubt it. More French speakers than Spanish speakers in Louisiana.

    All I'm saying is the Mexican food experiences I've had in the Midwest over the course of my life have been downright bad. (Nebraska, Louisville, Cincinnati, Buffalo)

    The place I was referring to in Louisville was called "El Nopal"... it was within a Ramada in north Louisville near the river. If you're ever in Louisville and feel like coughing up $14 on canned garbage, go for it and see what I mean.

    So what salsa then? I like making one with tomatillo, serrano, chicken stock, garlic, and onion, is great on chips or chorizo and egg, or anything practically. Though I also love making a salsa with arbol, pequin, and tomatillo too. Kind of prefer that one for tacos and not chips though.
    Yeah, I like green salsas more than red. And pretty similar recipe too, sometimes I will switch out the pepper depending on what I'm making, like if I want a green chile on a burger, I will do anaheim peppers with a small serrano or jalapeno for some heat.

    Like most, I like a good guacamole to go with muh chips, but sometimes I might be low an avacado or two, so a goo green salsa base is really easy to throw an avacado into for an avacado salsa.

    Me neither. The sex with your mom is free. The $0.50 is for a plastic sack.

    I'm in CA and not MN right now. Fifteen years ago, you're probably right. But the popularization of Mexican food as well as the spread of migrants is likely improving the quality in various states. It wouldn't surprise me to find a few good Mexican restaurants in the Twin Cities. I don't recall any good Mexican restaurants when I was in MN; though there were some okay street vendors.

    Plenty of Mexican food to be had in CA, but you have to go to the central valley (highway 99) to get the good, authentic, (not ironically) cheap stuff like you'd find in San Antonio.

    You are a very emotionally unadvanced person, dude. It's pretty sad to behold.

    There's some hole in the wall places here that are marginally better than the chain restaurants. Maybe I haven't had the best of the best, but there tends to be a ceiling for me for Mexican food. It's not like BBQ where you have it and it's pretty dang good but then you go to some hole in the wall place and it's totally next level.

    Chili’s used to have great chips but I haven’t been to one in over 10 years.

    I went to Chilli's for the first time in about that long the other day.
    But I didn't have any chips to say. Don't think I've ever had chips at Chilli's for that matter tbh.

    That's exactly what I was talking about.

    You pay roughly half the price for fresher, less industrialized/ins utionalized food, made by real cooks instead of prepared in factories and warmed up by lame chain restaurant line "cooks". And you're supporting small business instead of corporatocracy. Who cares if there's a few cobwebs in the ceiling corner and mold or mildew near the corners of the lower part of the walls? If the food is twice as good for half the price, you're getting a great deal IMO.

    Agreed on that one

    Applebees and TGI Fridays are the worst of their genre
