I'm not okay with hipsters, but they do know where good food is.

Really?  My impression is hipster food is all about dumbass fusion (Thai-Mex! Traditional comfort food with a Bolivian twist!) and stacking shit up really high on the plate.

Fusion's been out of foodie fashion for a decade or so hasn't it?

Over here hipsters are currently into craft beer (have been for a while), burgers (ditto, but we're past peak burger), BBQ, Sri Lankan, authentic Mexican. I think the forage thing may be past its peak, but I'm not sure.

When are they planning to actually get authentic Mexican?

Mexican restaurants in Buenos Aires (what few there are) are unauthentic and hilariously overpriced.

I don't understand the big deal with "authentic" Mexican, or interior Mexican as we call it. I mean it's alright.

"Authentic Mexican" = actual Mexicans can recognize it

Tex-Mex is far superior IMO.  Because there's chili.

When I say Mexican, Tex Mex is what I mean. :sleep:

I'm with you guys. After a month in Mexico all  I wanted to eat was club sandwiches.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
