Restaurants: Been to a good one lately?

[Soccer Obsession]

Besides the HDC concessions I mean :D.

This topic (a take-off from the justsocalstuff thread) is really going to depress me. One of the things I miss from home is all the great restaurants and food. The food over here is generally a bit... bland? :p It's not as bad as it's reputation, but I sure miss some good mexican food and my favorite places from home.

Where did everyone go for Cinco de Mayo? I think I would have gone with El Cholo if I was home...

So what you are saying is that the fact that I had Tacos from a Taqueria, and an In-n-Out Burger yesterday makes you jealous? :D

Earlier this week I came across a new lunch destination around the corner from my work. I am a big fan of Chipotle, but I am not a big fan of their prices, nor of their crowds.

You all remember McDowell's (Coming to America) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDowell%27s) Well this place is to Chipotle what McDowell's was to McDonald's. It is called Contodo Mexican Grill and it is on Tustin Ave a little South of Katella. The exact same food, the exact same process, only cheaper and less crowded.
