I realize most people in Phoenix grew up with Sonoran food....but in my opinion it is the worst of the regional cuisines from Mexico and I can not stand it. It is just a step above the horrible cumin laden, no kick Tex Mex stuff they peddle in East Texas. I refuse to eat at the Tee Pee because I can not stomach the awful red sauce, the disgusting orange cheese and the grease. With the exception of Machaca and possibly the Chimichanga (if you are liberal with the border)...Sonoran food is the worst of the regional Mexican cuisines.

The cuisines of almost all of Mexico are far superior....Vera Cruz with the seafood. Oaxaca and Puebla with the moles. Chihuahua with the grilled meats. Jalisco with tequila. That is mexican food.

BTW...Corona is the worst Mexican beer. Bohemia and Negro Modelo are great beers...Corona is not.

Sorry...just had to vent.

Corona is absolutely the worst beer out there. I love the ones you mentioned, but my choice is a Pacifico with a lime....

I even like Tecate better than Corona. And that stuff is awful if you don't put enough lime and salt.

You have to fruit Corona. I have to fruit Dos Equis.

However, Pacifico is Magnifico all on its very own. Therefore, Pacifico reigns supreme.

:thumbup:

I prefer adding a lime to it just because of the experience, y'know? But, I absolutely LOVE it even by itself. Honestly, it is one of the best beers of the world all on its own....

I also really enjoy (I think) ALL of the Japanese beers I have had. Sapporo and Kirin Ichi Ban are off the charts....

I love Asahi Dry...because I had a ton of it in Japan, and it is goooooood over there. Damn good, and no hangover.

Seriously, you guys should start a beer thread. Maybe something similar to KoC's "Beers from around the world"...only you won't have to drink 'em all in one day :D

When we go to Mexico, we buy massive amounts of Dos Equis. I can't drink it in the states, but I pound Dos Equis in Mexico...ten by noon. Do it, do it.

I honestly have issues drinking Dos Equis in the US...that's just weird, I know.

I don't think so...my brother in law and I tried a bunch of different ones when we were over there visiting him, and all were fantastic.


Sapporo......mmmmmm. Plus they have the coolest can in the history of beer.
