Tex Mex is one of my favorite foods - top 5 for sure. I don't often have it eating out but it's a strong influence in my own style of cooking. So, not very often.

The best Tex-Mex I've ever had was someplace just outside of Houston on my way to New Orleans more than a decade ago.

Tex-Mex, especially in KC, has been all to disappointing to me. I used to LOVE Annie's Sante Fe when I was in high school, but it's long gone. Jose Peppers and On The Border are awful. I'd rather have frozen food.

There is absolutely NO Tex-Mex where I live. Just hand made tortillas (both flour and corn), seasoned skirt steak, chicken and pork. The flavors are absolutely amazing. Spiced ground beef pales in comparison.

With that said, if someone can direct me to good to excellent Tex-Mex in KC, I'd greatly appreciate it. We're visiting sometime this fall and I'd like my wife to finally enjoy it.

Tex-Mex is awesome. We (me and the wife) make our own Tex-Mex. Spicy.

My whole life cuz that shit is whack.

With all due respect, the goal of Mexican food isnt to overspice or make it difficult to eat. The peppers, jalapenos, etc. are seasoning.

IMO, Tex-Mex hides the flavor and is too "Americanized" (Don Bell founded the first Taco Bell in the 1950's and was the first guy to deep fry a corn tortilla and sell it in a drive thru restaurant).

True Mexican food is far more complicated, whether it's Oaxacan or Baja or from Mexico City.

Mole's and guacamole and fish tacos and mariscos are far more interesting than refried beans, cheddar cheese and "spicy " hamburger.

Tuesday after the bash last year.
