Last night my friends wanted to do some shopping at Walmart and not being much in the mood I decided to do some exploring on my own. After doing the usual daily Flickr upload ritual, I headed out and found myself a mighty greasy looking taco stand and ordered 5 of the most delicious quesadillas I have ever eaten. I also had a really delicious Coke-Cola—which as you may or may not be aware tastes so much better in a bottle.

It might seem a little scary to eat food prepared right on the street but so far, other than a couple of the guys having a natural reaction to the beans, we haven´t had any real issues.

I ordered the pork quesadillas which in addition to flame roasted pork chunks come with melted cheese, fresh pineapple, a little bit of onions, and cilantro. They have a motley selection of sauces to add but I usually just stick to good old guacamole.

On one of the first nights where we had tacos and quesadillas, Steve was showing us the ropes of what was good what was bad, and how to prepare a delicious taco. He poured on some of the green—which he thought was guacamole (the other green sauce). Luckily for Steve, the guy at the stand warned him that it was going to be quite hot. Despite his efforts to scrape most of the sauce off, it was still easily observable that Steve was enjoying some very spicy food. Though you wouldn’t think it was possible, his red sun worn face became even more red and tiny beads of sweat collected on his forehead. He kind of laughed as he mentioned that yeah, this stuff was pretty hot, and we might want to avoid that particular sauce.
