You guys (and gals) are destroying me. I used to frequent the Super Mex near my house in Long Beach, the little one at Cherry/Wardlow. It wasn't as good as the authentic places around LA, but I couldn't argue with the convenience.
I've been in Texas four years now (just outside Austin), and I swear the Mexican food options are just miserable. Worse crap than I can crank out of my own kitchen. How can a state with 1200 miles of Mexico border and a dense Mexican population screw up Mexican food so badly? I'm going through some serious withdrawals...
