After taking a leave of absence from Mexican Restaurants (due to the large quantity I consumed in California) I decided to go out for Mexican Friday night.
There aren't any good Mexican restaurants in the greater Burlington area, and i'd venture to say in the entire state. I mean what about "Vermont" screams "Mexican"?
My roomate and I met at Mexicali, a place that really gets two thumbs up for meshing "Vermont" and "Mexican". I mean they even encorporate the design of VT's license plate into the layout of the menu....but that's all that the thumbs are pointing up for.
I scan the menu for "Fish Tacos"... (duh, what else would I get after spending time in SD?)
I find it, and when I ordered they server asked, "crispy or soft shell?" aw crap..I couldn't remember how they were served in SD! I put my elbows on the table and my head in my hands, and exclaimed, "i don't know" to which the server suggested, "you can get one of each!" that's what I went for. I got to pick 2 sides, I chose: refried beans and jalepeno cornbread.
Conclusions:
Fish was not fried. It was grilled. It tasted more like chicken, (it really was fish, though)
There was no special sauce
They were just bad.
Even the refried beans were bad.
There is one more shop on Church Street I'm going to assess, before I stop eating mexican in this state.
