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.

Louisville used to have SantaFe Grill next to Churchill… complete dump where cops, businessmen, stable hands, UofL students would pack the place for lunch. Grease would ooze out of the ansul exhaust system.

Legit.

If you’re ever in Crestwood hit up the Taqueria Crestwood, nobody can argue they don’t serve “real” Mexican food. They’ll throw a slab of tongue, gut, whatever you ask for on a plate. I’ve stopped going to any other Mexican joints since I discovered this little jewel.

Santa Fe grill had terrible chips. Kroger Deli version of chips.

El Molcajete was pretty damn authentic.

Need some info from the reals:


- super secret Mexican grocery store lunch counter
and
- taco truck


Cuban guy who used to park his truck at Watterson Trail/Bardstown was a grade A asshole, but had amazing food.

Been there. Ended up with a fish that still had eyes and corn that hadn’t been shucked

I’ve since changed my order but still go. Great little hole in the wall shit hole place.

Real Mexican food is when they don’t bring you complimentary chips and salsa. Then, when you ask for the damn chips and salsa, they walk to the tienda next store, and throw a bag of pork rinds on your table while making fun of you.

I prefer the other type.

We’re getting 2 Wing Stops in the very near future out of nowhere. It’ll be interesting to see if it’s still as good when I can get it anytime I want.

He's thinking of Tonio's Super Burrito, which was unreal. Corner of Vine/Limestone downtown...Used to crush in college.

Tonio’s was the absolute jam. Ate there with a buddy several times a week when I worked downtown one summer, still think about and miss it.

You're married. You know the answer to this.

Let’s talk Italian. Like real, made from scratch homemade Italian. Who’s got the best endless pasta bowl in town?

Los Clamatos (former Big Boy), Versailles Road.

My favorite Italian is Frank and Dinos or Guiseppes. I rarely go to Guiseppes since it's on the dark side of the moon out Nich Rd.

Just cackled out loud. Mostly because I’m sure he actually says that on a fairly regular basis.

 

[anthonys735]

Sausage jokes are timeless.

 

[rudd1]

-Giuseppe's is the best in town... but it's location is problematic. Carbonate is my favorite there.

-pasta garage for fast food.

I love Indian food to this day….but the first time I ate it, traveling for work, with a lady from Nepal, I started shitting my brains out before we got the tab and for the next 24 hours straight.

I’d wager I lost 12lbs and shat out every steak hoagie I had from KLair grill some 6 years earlier.
