Anne, you have it right about TexMex. I spent six weeks or so for work in Oahu in Jan/Feb and was in absolute Tex/Mex withdrawal. Out of despiration, we tried one of the Mexican places in Honolulu. What a huge mistake. Not only was the food not authentic and not very good--it gave me indigestion for hours! If you want really good Mexican food come to Texas or New Mexico. I love to find Mexican restaurants in odd places, though. My most recent fun find was just off the main street in Taormina, Sicily. Anyone else found Mexican food in strange places??
