However moving away from San Antonio has taught me one thing. I was spoiled when it came to my favorite ethnic food, Mexican. I now live in a city where everything is a burrito. these philistines have never heard of tortas or mole or chorizo or barbacoa. Mexican food to them consists of

    -flour tortillas
    -Ground beef
    -Guac
    -Cheese
    -Sour Cream

    Then if that wasn't enough of a kick in the balls the B-B-Q here (outside of 1 place) is nowhere where near as good as San Antons. So I move up to a city filled with cowboys and they can even get their cuisne right

    On the plus side the steakhouses are better and in my first two weeks of college I have consumed more alchol than in the rest of my years put together....oh and the girls there nice

    Whats yalls favorite food?

    That because your back in gringo land. Now since your in Lubbock just make your way across into New Mexico and you might find some really good local food that makes the stuff in San Antonio look like crap. Some of the Navajo influenced dishes are really good.

    Couple of really good restraunts that look like dives, are somewhat close to Lubbock, you just have to stay away from the Gringo sounding ones.

    If they serve tomato sauce as a hot sauce run - its been gringoized.

    Oh and San Antonio BBQ really sucks badly.

    You got to go down to Gonzales and Luing to get really good mesquite deep pit BBQ, Now Mempis, TN has some of the best ribs in the country
