How to Know You Found The Right Mexican Food Place

Ever wondered if the restaurant you were entering would give you that all fulfilling satisfaction that only a good carne asada burrito can give? The answer is here.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Correct taste buds
• Eyes

1. Look at the surroundings.
   
   If the Mexican Restaurant that you approach is even close to a full bustling "white suburbian" shopping plaza, brother, you are in the wrong neighborhood. To get the full authentic and full tasting mexican burrito/taco experience, you gotta expect that the true chefs who love to just cook, aren't looking for attention. You could get into all sorts of trouble, which leads us to our next step.

2. Make sure to check out the customers.
   
   If you have rich white ladies with their chihuahua's trying to get their margaritas with their "enchilada's", sista, you definitely in the wrong neighborhood. Real authentic places definitely have a sort of draw that mostly asian college boys, hungry after partygoers and gangster looking but friendly homies love.

3. Check the Hot Sauce.
   
   If a restaurant is sporting ketchup and Tabasco as their main hot sauces and condiments, you DEFINITELY are in the wrong place. A great mexican place always, ALWAYS, has a greater signature sauce. It's practically what makes the experience, the EXPERIENCE. Like my ol' homie used to say, letting it burn ain't just an Usher phrase at a great mexi-cali food spot.

4. If the surroundings are good, the customers look legit, and the hot sauce is perfect, the final step to make sure you in the right mexican neighborhood is the menu.
   
   If you see anything resembling a dollar menu at a Mcdy's, you seriously need to run out and save yourself the cash and the disappointment.
   
   Most of the greatest mexican restaurants, have wooden menus with the ink slowly coming off.
   
   It's like my dad used it say, if it ain't broken, don't mess with it. Most of these menu's are made for one thing and one thing only, telling you what they sell and how much it is. Great mexican places use the authentic and amazing tastes of their burritos to sell them, not these modernized marketing schemes by a squeaky asian boy fresh out of an art institute.
