Little Mexico

I tried Mi Finca once and despised it. I keep hearing good reviews,so maybe it was just a bad night and I'll have to try it again. Cinco De Mayo spoiled me I guess (all of these locals fall way short IMO)

Chinese food is the food that really busts my gut. Talk about a clensing.

Food poisoning

Secondly, I'm not mad that they speak spanish..I am mad they can't speak english. It is not the same at all if they were to get mad in that second scenario(unless I am in mexico). They are here, in my country and this is the language we speak. Now, if you are going to start a business here in this country..you need to be able to speak the English language enough to take my order. They are here-America- we are not there. It's hard enough to get my order taken at a BK with english speaking people. But I will say that I have had plenty of problems at other restaurants around here such as Wendys in Wise. I would say that you are better off eating at home and cooking for yourself if you want to go by health standards. At least you know what's going into it and you aren't to get pissed at yourself - I'm not saying this happens every 2 sec, but there's no risk of that at home. I've noticed some of these places around here and its like thinking "ahh fresh batch from the methadone clinic".. But I would trust myself cooking a lot more rather them some(I'm not saying all or most, but a few) of these people working. But hey, I can't make make my own Arbys Melt or some fingerlicking KFC...so they got me by the cajones and I'm at their mercy.

Well, science does change and there can be inconsistencies. When I was a restaurant manager, we were taught that this info I shared was the norm. Maybe things have changed, i don't know, and don't really care. I know I always ran clean., efficient restaurants that were always in the top 5 of the market...paperwork backs that up!!
Eating at home is the safest thing if you are super paranoind. I agree, and that is why I usually eat at home or where my wife manages!

Burton that just goes to show you I think the Little Debbie's snacks are your safest bet.

Thank God I never ate at that Taco Bell. My neighbor used to work there, and a cousin did at around that same time, so I may question them on it the next time I see them. Just disgusting though.

Never had a problem with the Little Mexico up near Wal Mart in BSG. Went there a couple of times on company lunches...now some of the girls that worked with me claimed that the women working there were talking in Spanish about her. Cure for that?? Get Rosetta Stone and learn a little Spanish. Now there were some little Latin honeys that worked up there....but damm, if they didn't wear the makeup!

There's a good Mexican restaurant over here called Mi Degellado (probably butchered the name). Friendly staff, good service.

Talking about food poisoning, I had two bouts of it in one month back in '05, both after eating from Pizza King.

Is that the one in the WalMart shopping center? If so, TheBeast and I ate there last month. Food was pretty good.

I ate there once, was the worst 'Mexican' food I've ever had. I could have done a better job at home with a package of tortillas and a can of refried beans.

I've never had bad service at the Norton Little Mexico. The food is always hot and (somewhat) tasty.

I tried Mi Finca twice not long after it opened and wasn't impressed. It must have improved though according to word of mouth.

I like the Little Mexico at home in BSG. Every time I am home from college I try to go there and eat. Here in Berea they have two Mexican places "El Rio Grande" (aka Mexican Hardees) and "Mariachi." I know Mexican Hardees is a big hit among the college students. I am a junior and still haven't eaten there yet.
