I worked in Austin for a couple years. Great Taquerias and all that stuff. That said, I worked with this really pretty gal with a constant bad attitude who was an MBA intern at UT who was born and raised in Mexico City. Any place I named as a Mexican restaurant in Austin she would roll her eyes and say, "but that's not real Mexican food". I said, "oh yeah, what is real Mexican food then" and she never really could say. So I'm calling BS on people who say tacos, nachos, burritos, chimichangas, Mexican Pizza and Gordita Crunches aren't authentic Mexican food.
