 | 	- Toronto isn't known for it's Mexican food, so when my partner in crime to the north, Kris U, suggested we go to Vaughan for Mexican, I was more than skeptical. 
When we pulled into a strip mall, skepticism turned to food poisoning fear. What in the world is he thinking? "Is it good?" "I don't know... I haven't been." Christ on a cracker, this does not seem like a good idea, I thought to myself, but I went with the flow. 
OK. Here it is. I, Evelyn W, was wrong*. This place is delicious.
The front of house guy is older and slower, but he's taking his time to get it right. He and his wife own the place and are actually Mexican. We each had a margarita (can't go wrong). shared the chalupitas (delicious) and I had the beef tacos. As far as this little Nova Scotian knows, everything was really authentic and it all had a nice kick. I'm obviously not an expert on Mexican food, but I've been to Mexico and I eat Old Elpaso Kits, and this meal was much closer to Meh-hee-co than my fave yellow taco boxes. 
The decor was bright, and there was a little hut inside the restaurant over the bar. Adorable. 
PEPPER POINTS: For the all you can eat salsa bar. Try 'em all! 
*It shan't happen again!
