Ms. Kristina is as accurate as she is eloquent...Her take on the food scene is spot on (from the perspective of a fellow SF/Berkeley/Mendocino denizen). Good Mexican food is rare anywhere, and TJs should give up the pretense. (Once in a bus bouncing around the bush in Peru, some Gringo in the front suddendly called out. "Any Californians aboard? What do you miss most when travelling?", and several of us, traveling separately, responded in unison "Mexican food".)
