Is Tex Mex the Best Mex?
In Texas we love our Tex-Mex. Do you prefer Tex-Mex, New Mexico Style, or Mexico City style "Mexican" food and where is your favorite Mexican restaurant?

Hai: I’m not familiar with New Mexico, so I really only know Tex-Mex and Mexico City style Mexican food. I prefer Tex-Mex for the sheer guilty pleasure of it all. My favorite taqueria and spot I would take all my foodie friends to was El Vaquito in Durham, NC for killer tacos. I haven’t had a chance to try what Philly has to offer in that department in full so I will reserve judgement on that.
Eric: I was raised on Tex-Mex. If you have tacos, you are on my shortlist of favorite Mexican Restaurants. And by “having tacos” I mean a section devoted to tacos on your menu.
Jill: All of the above. But more traditional Mexican food is my favorite; Oyamel in Washington, DC is my favorite.
