(14,885 posts)there was a small hole in the wall Hispanic market. They expanded to take over a second shop, and opened a restaurant.
They did not speak a lick of English. The only time I ever heard English was when the owners grand school age son came out and translated something for some finicky customer. And aside from myself and a few others I brought, I never saw another Caucasian in that shop. I'm guessing it was fairly authentic.
Damn good food. Damn good. And super cheap. Plus interesting candy, Mexican coke, and really tasty baked goods. Although I was a bit perturbed that the bright colored looking cookies/rolls were bland and untasty, while the plain looking ones were often really good.
One odd thing I did notice. When one of my female friends would order, she always seemed to pay less. We tested it one time, she and I went in about an hour apart and bought exactly the same thing. And she paid about a dollar less on a ten dollar purchase.
