I remember the Taco Bell in the Zona Rosa in Mexico City. It was always empty, as the tacos cost four times more than those sold on the street.

My favorite sign in Mexico was at a bar in Monterrey: "Hora de Happy Hour."

Aha - but tortilla prices have been rising dramatically!

My Mom’s family is from South Texas, and I cut my teeth on good Tex-Mex. Tex-Mex is much better than Taco Bell, and different from what Mexicans eat in the interior of Mexico. It is similar. In Mexico, the people eat, peppers, tortillas, and many of the things included in Tex-Mex. However, Tex-Mex is generally more similar to sandwich food, not a main course like Carne Asado, or a steak.
