Never been to Mexican town in Detroit? Get yourself there immediately. Go to Xochimilco and Evie’s Tamales for some take home tamales. Here’s some pictures from a recent visit.
You’re probably asking yourself what that last picture is. It is a mexican sandwich, which is pretty much everything you can think of in a Mexican resturaunt layered between three tortillas. Deeeeeeeelicious.
With no other options for lunch at work the other day, I settled for one of the new Taco Bell enchilada platters. Here’s what I got.
Suprisingly, it wasn’t half bad. I was expecting a small portioned pile of slop, but the food was surprisingly good. The enchiladas are stuffed with the same spicy chicken that comes in their spicy chicken burritos, which I always order when stopping at Taco Bell. The salsa is not great, but is an edible chunky salsa. The beans and rice are pretty standard.
All in all, I would summarize this meal as “surprising”. My standards were low, and I got a pretty fulfilling meal. I should mention that I ate one of those cheesy double beef burritos afterward, but sometimes my appetite is ridiculous.
If you have limited options for food, give it a try.
I have some stuff that I need to post on here, but my cat has been in the hospital all day, so no time to do much. I did find a delicious recipe for bacon mayo, which is absolutely incredible.
