Mexican

Or rather, Mexican't.

So a new Mexican take out opened up near me so last night we figured, why the hell not and ordered. Food turned up on time

only the messed the order up. Really messed it up. We ordered 1 chimichanga, 1 muchos nachos, 2 cajun chicken quescidalas (sp) and some fired hot wings.

They delivered, 1 chimichanga, 1 muchos nachos, 1 plain quescidalas (sp) fried hot wings, 2 garlic and pepper chicken & mushrooms

after 5 minutes on the phone they sent out what we were missing. Shouldn't have bothered tbh, everything was vile. The "Hot" wings were not hot and the quescidalas were limp and soggy

Ended up going to the Chinese and getting food from there.

JSB, if you read this, avoid the new mexican take out that's just opened dude, not worth it.

I've been spoiled by eating mexican food in the states in proper mexican restaurants, so over here nothing tastes good

I'm yet to find a decent Mexican place in the UK.

There's a fantastic Mexican restaurant at the corner of the block where my normal NYC hotel is. I can't wait to go back there.

Never heard of a Mexican take-away!

We have a lovely Mexican restaurant in Norwich, although I can't compare it to the rest of the world. Is good though

I don't know about Mexican take-out in the States but there are some pretty good places in Vancouver certainly. One of the things I miss most is the variety of take-outs that were there.

I find just cooking my own every so often keeps me happy.
