Loco for Mexican Taco (Salad)

DAY 3

I didn't feel like making my own dinner so I treated my pets (dog and human) to a late night out on Maginhawa Street.

For Tobi, walking is enough of a treat, so we braced our ears for the territorial barking of the poor caged dogs along the street while the little one absolutely enjoyed every second of its leashed freedom.  I treated C to a super burrito at my favorite place on the resto strip, Mexican Express, while I got a colorful taco salad* for myself.

Did you know that UNESCO has added traditional Mexican cuisine to its list of the world's intangible cultural heritages?  There's a TV show I always catch on Sundays that features Mexican food and because of it, I have added Mexico to my own list of must-visit countries. 
 

The Mexicans know how to salsa.



*Taco salad is a Mexican-inspired dish invented by Americans.  It's not a traditional Mexican dish.
