if i had to pick a favorite food, i'd be really sad. but Mexican would be close to the top of the list. i feel fortunate in that i grew up in AZ where the Mexican food is almost unconditionally great everywhere.
now and then i've found good Mexican food here. Casa Lupe on El Camino around Bernardo is pretty good. there's a tasty taqueria down the street from my apartment here in SF. i'll even eat Chevy's occasionally (though calling that mexican food is blasphemy, really) - but when i go back to see family in AZ, i gotta get Mexican food. that's the real thing, to me, and man, is it ever gooooooooooood.
AZ trivia: a quesadilla is commonly called a "cheese crisp" in many Phoenix-area Mexican restaurants. say that anywhere outside of AZ and people will look at you sideways. :)
