I am a recent Washington transplant (moved here from Va) and Mexican food restaurants has been my biggest let down so far. It may be that I just have become accustomed to what passes for Mexican food where I used to live but it just hasn't gone over well with me. A lot of the Mexican food places in Va use white cheese sauces and red mole sauces and I have not found that to be true so far here in Washington. Hasn't been bad, just different. Otherwise, I LOVE IT HERE. One of the best decisions I ever made. Been a great experience so far...well except for the fact I'm a state employee and they can't agree on a state budget and I got a temporary lay-off notice to start July 1st....other than that it great
