Well, in a sense. Chavella’s a tiny little restaurant opened up a little over a year ago half a block from where I was living in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn (now I live all of about a block away). I would pass by and take a look at the menu which offers a selection of somewhat standard Mexican fare including tacos, tortas, quesadillas and bigger plates of enchiladas, tamales and chicken mole…

Hi! Yes, I agree. Mexican food should taste like mexican food…not pau bhaji. If you want some of that, skip chavella’s and come over to my place!
So when ARE we all gonna eat some of C’s yummy fish tacos on your rooftop anyways? 🙂
Um … that graymeat looks far from appetizing. I’m glad you were able to top that trash with a find in J-heights. Seriously, if I live in NYC much longer, I think I should just move out there. I’m sick of all this hip Brooklyn “Now we REALLY have Mexican food,” B.S.
Chavelas sux. Their tortilla soup is possibly the worst pseudo-cilantric pablum I’ve ever tasted. Do not try this when you’re sick and looking for some mexily-spiced comfort food. No. Bad.
