Mexi-"Can't Ever Eat There Again"...

This week's food post is a tragic one.  Although surrounded by glorious lobster dinners and great uptown sandwiches, one dinner from last week sticks out specifically in my mind.  Greatly missing the comfort foods found at Chapel Hill's El Rodeo, Southern Pines' El Vaquero, and High Point's La Hacienda, Meredith and I ventured over to the Mexico Lindo in South Portland to partake in some deliciously unhealthy Mexican cuisine.  To keep it as brief and unscathing as possible, if this is where Maine goes for its Mexican, then Maine "no sabe buen comido mexicano" (sorry for the rough Spanish - but hopefully you get the point).  Ketchup with diced onions is by no means salsa, menus should always have a "Speedy Gonzales" or the ability to create your own dish, and I cannot even begin to describe the void left by not having a rapidly-refilled cup of sweet tea to accompany my meal.  Although I have not given-up on finding some decent Mexican food in the state, it seems that Meredith and I will be switching to sushi for a healthier alternative to our comfort food.  So if there are any Mainers out there reading this, feel free to make suggestions, but until then, no more chalupas, enchiladas, burritos, or tacos for these two kids from away.  Respiran facil nos amigos.
