Oh man, this is a topic near and dear to my heart! I'm originally from California, but I lived in Mexico for several years.
I am dying for some good traditional tacos. (Currently abroad but far from Mexico)
The best tortillas I had were the handmade ones, made from organic blue maize.
- yoshyosh 7y agoI want to live in Mexico for a little bit one day. I imagine you came out of that with a taste for tacos that can't be matched anywhere. Were there any spots that you really enjoyed that had the organic blue maize that you liked or was it mostly abundant because Mexico hah? I'll definitely bookmark it :-)
- kilroy123 7y agoI recommend it if possible. I had such an amazing experience living there. It's funny, I never miss the US but I always miss Mexico. I mostly lived in Mexico City, but I've traveled a lot around the country and spent time living in a few other cities for shorter periods of time. I've probably seen more of Mexico than 90%+ of all Mexicans. Some of the best food I've ever had was in a small Pueblo (town) called San Sebastián del Oeste in the state of Jalisco. [1] It's a small "magic town" in the mountains in Jalisco. [2] Most of the best food I've had in Mexico was not in the big cities but in the small towns. Especially, the family-owned places where there's an older Mexican lady cooking up food. Cliché but true.

- yoshyosh 7y agoThanks for the suggestions, I'm planning on Mexico City and some other small towns like you mentioned. Will definitely add to the list!
