Actually, many of the cooks were British (the main chef anyway, the line cooks were probably Guatemalan just like in the US).

That's because the locals grew up experiencing the awefulnes of English food so they know to avoid it. We go there because it is a novalty and then we can go home and talk about how bad English food was.

Europeans have no taste and wouldn't know good mexican food if it crossed their boarders illegally, flooded their health care system, forced their school systems to teach ESL, adopted welfare as a vialable form of employment, posted bills in spanish (but only BEER ads!), and bit them in the ass...

Naw, they'd rather call us xenophobes as our children are forced to sit on their thumbs as they wait for medical treatment or an education, are forced to pay inflated taxes to support "undocumented" "citizens", and watch as those who deprive them of their "legal" rights abuse the system.

But hey! At least we can get a decent taco when we want one!@

Some kebabs are just the skewer kind- not the Middle Eastern pitta ones.

It's the premise of the question that was asked.

Anyone with even an ounce of common sense or general knowledge would have known the answer without needing to ask the question, thus proving his thoughtless ignorance...

I was in San Antonio a few years back and we were doing one of those tourist hop on hop off buses when the Mexican driver asked if anyone on the bus had ever eaten at a proper Mexican restaurant. To which a woman from Indiana replied "Yes, we eat at Taco Bell every week!"

I have to say that the most stupid Americans I've come across so far (on the strength of several encounters) are people from Indiana...

You're not from Indiana are you MRT?

That is a real American restaurant!

I'm surprised there isn't a subsidiary of McDonalds doing a la carte menus with silver service and a coke sommelier!

'McDonalds Gourmet', now there's a viable enterprise!

Ironically enough, every Mexican place that I saw in Spain was expensive as hell. I guess it's because all the Mexicans go to the U.S. and a lot of Central Americans go to Spain. I did, however, get good El Salvadorean food there....
