Your Baja Cravings
Just for fun and this is simply off the top of my so-called mind:
The churros sold by the vendors in the border. Hot, fresh, delicious. Cheap, too.
The c-ckteles at Mariscos Alegria in Primo Tapia. She serves only the best and fresh pata de mula, callo, oysters, shrimp, clam.. She also makes a
mean caldo de marisco and cahuamanta.
The carnitas at Carnitas los Panchos, Rosarito.
The sublime fish tacos at JR Tacos, Rosarito. Fish tacos, shrimp tacos, aguachile...the bestest.

It's a toss up between the hamburger or the fish tacos at El Viejo in Los Barriles. I would hope I have the good sense to order the fish tacos which
are mighty fine, but dang that burger is yummy, well, it has been a long time since I got to eat one.

What I love to eat in Baja...Fish tacos. The Chilaquiles at Playa Azul in the ejido outside San Felipe and Pineapple/coconut ice cream! Plus a nice
icy cold Tecate (but not with the ice cream)!
Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

Jan you're the best! I agree with your taco selection but they put too much (Pasta) batter on the tacos at tacos Los Cabos!

Jan do these have to be just taste cravings or could they involve the other four senses?

The fish tacos at the across from the old super mercado building in Loreto. I've been going there for years but I can't remember the name. A while
back I took some midwest friends there. I had to twist their arms to try a fish taco ("they must taste fishy"). I bet them they could not eat just
one. I won the bet. They ended up stuffing themselves.
The shark taco stand in G Negro is primo.

Carnitas la Flor de Michacan
I love this place; good family operation and always, always great food.
Established in 1952 (my birth year, but please, please, don't mention this.)

Las Cazuelas de Mole?
Yeahh, I think that they are good and I really like the mixiote.
The pipian (green mole) is OK, but the dark mole is disappointing (bitter).
The margaritias are killer.

As much as I love "Mariscos Bahia" in Ensenada prices have recently gone up!
It's still a bargin compared to US prices. Nothing beats those camarooonies ranchereos and a cold dos ecky's.
Just my two pesos of bar stool knowledge....
