I had the burrito al pastor at Taqueria Mexico. Their style of al pastor consisted of stewed carne in a rojo sauce, not the traditional carved marinated beef slices off a spit. The Lebanese style pastor has a broiled smokey flavor, so I felt snookered. Then I had to beg for tinidor, japalapeno, and salsa. They gave up those item begrudgingly as if it would drive them out of business.
My lesson was don't have any expectations when I come here. But if I don't have expectations of it being any good what's the use of going back?

Toyito's - July 13, 2009
At Toyito's I had their Combo #6. Descent rotisserie chicken. For desert I had their plantain chips and their Alfajor (a pastry, a light chocolate creme filling sandwich between crumbly cookie dough like wafers covered with a thin white icing). I'll have to ask what South American country the dishes are from.

Miami Restaurant - July 6, 2009
At Miami Restaurant, I had their lengua in a light tomato sauce. The tomato sauce was mellow with none of acidic common with tomato sauce. The entree was served with black beans and rice. I should have asked for the plantain and yucca to complete the dinin experience. Next time.

Famous Hamburger - June 28, 2009
Famous Hamburger advertises itself as a halal food preparer. I could discern no difference between halal and non halal food. I had the salmon burger and the hamous. They also have halal bacon cheeseburger. What?!?!? Next time I must try it and they have a hookah lounge too.
