清迈的墨西哥煎饼 Burritos - Chiang Mai
El Diablo Burritos - Chiang Mai: fantastic place but the mexican is not great
So this is my 4th stop on my attempt to sample every single Mexican or Tex-Mex place in the entire city of Chiang Mai. If the information I found online is correct, there are 14 such establishments in the city. My intention is to eat at all of them and report back.
I go to every establishment blind: I do not read any reviews or do any research whatsoever before attending. I also order stock-standard items such as tacos so I can do a fair assessment of each place.
On to El Diablo!
Upon entering this delightful establishment it immediately becomes evident that the place is owned by an American. There is tons of Americana inside and there are certain things on the menu that you will never see in other places such as sweet ice tea with free refills. "El Diablo" is a subset of the entire establishment that is actually named "3 Little Pigs" and they have an extensive menu with things on it that I am very excited to try one day.
I was actually disappointed that I was here for a very clear objective and that is to eat Mexican food. I really want to order just about everything in the above picture and I will get to it one day.
The service was fantastic and one thing that really turned me on was the fact that before I even ordered, water, a bunch of pickled vegetables, and chips and salsa were brought to my table. This is a nice touch and something you don't often experience in Thailand.
Everything was going great! The staff were super-friendly, the owner was wandering around making sure everyone was taken care of, there were plenty of fans to keep us cool, and the menu was delightful. Now on to the disappointing part.
I ordered the combo plate of 2 tacos and two tamales (which also came with rice and beans as is tradition.) The plate presentation and the portions are fantastic and I stared at my dinner realizing before even starting that there is no chance I am going to finish all of that. I was delighted and then I started eating it.
To describe the flavor as disappointing doesn't really do justice to how much of a let-down this was. The tamales tasted dry and weird, I didn't finish them. The taco shells are clearly purchased rather than made and again, they were not cooked properly so they were very chewy. I don't have a problem with people buying products rather than making them but jaysus, you gotta cook them properly otherwise they are kind of unusable.
The refried beans were just strange and didn't taste like beans at all. The rice was rice and it was fine but for me anyway, i generally don't get involved with rice at Tex mex places.
All in all i was thoroughly disappointed with El Diablo's food, but am willing to give them another chance when i return to try some of the entres such as the ribs or pork chops. I would never order their mexican food again because while I am certain that their intentions are good, the delivery was so far from actual Mexican food that to be honest I think it shouldn't even be on the menu. I still think people should visit this place if for nothing else than to enjoy the very nicely created ambiance and friendly staff - just don't order the Tex Mex.
玉米煎饼-清迈：好处所，但墨西哥人其实不伟大
所以那是我第四次测验考试在清迈市的每一个墨西哥或墨西哥得克萨斯州取样。假设我在网上找到的信息是准确的，那个城市有14家如许的机构。我的目标是食下所有的食物，然后再陈述。
我对每个机构都视而不见：在参与之前，我没有阅读任何评论或做任何研究。我还订购库存原则商品，如玉米卷，如许我能够对每个处所做一个公允的评估。
到了暗黑毁坏神！
一旦进进那个令人愉快的处所，它立即变得明显，那是一个美国人拥有的处所。里面有良多美国菜，菜单上有一些你在其他处所看不到的工具，好比免费续杯的甜冰茶。”“暗黑毁坏神”是整个设备的一个子集，现实上被定名为“3只小猪”，他们有一个普遍的菜单上的工具，我很兴奋有一天能测验考试。
我实的很失看我来那里是为了一个十分明白的目标，那就是食墨西哥菜。我实的很想订购上面图片中的所有工具，总有一天我会往的。
办事十分好，有一件事让我很兴奋，那就是在我点菜之前，我还没点水，一堆泡菜，薯条和沙司就被端到桌上了。那是一个很好的接触和一些你在泰国不经常履历的工作。
一切都很顺利！工做人员十分友好，老板四处走动，确保每小我都得到赐顾帮衬，有良多粉丝让我们连结凉快，菜单也很甘旨。接下来是令人失看的部门。
我点了两个玉米卷和两个玉米粉蒸肉（传统上也有米饭和豆子）的组合盘，盘上的菜式和每一份都很棒，我盯着我的晚餐，意识到在起头之前，我底子没有时机完成所有那些。我很兴奋，然后起头食。
把味道描述成令人失看其实不能实正阐明那是多么令人失看。玉米粉蒸肉又干又怪，我没食完。墨西哥玉米卷的外壳很明显是买来的，而不是做出来的，并且它们又没有煮熟，所以很耐嚼。我不介意人们购置产物而不是造造产物，但是杰萨斯，你必需把它们煮好，不然它们就不克不及用了。
重做的豆子很希罕，味道一点也不像豆子。大米是大米，很好，但对我来说，我一般不会在tex-mex的处所接触大米。
总之，我对暗黑毁坏神的食物十分失看，但当我回来品尝一些主菜，如排骨或猪排时，我情愿再给他们一次时机。我再也不会点他们的墨西哥菜了，因为固然我确信他们的企图是好的，但送的墨西哥菜和实正的墨西哥菜相差太远了，诚恳说，我觉得菜单上底子不该该有。我仍然认为人们应该参看那个处所，假设没有此外原因，除了享受十分好的创造情况和友好的工做人员-只是不要订购德州墨西哥。
