The best mole you can have outside of Oaxaca is at Chilpancingo or Ixcapuzalco in Chicago. All the dishes pay homage to the chef's grandmothers.
There's no Red Lobster or Long John Silvers anywhere in Maine.
The closest Red Lobsters are in upstate NY (according to their website). Looks like the closest LJS's are in the Boston area.
On the topic of Mexican food, it's nonexistent in Bangor. We've got a Taco Bell and a local place that I went to once. It was easily the worst Mexican food I've ever had, and possibly the worst food I've ever had. The tortilla chips had a plastic quality, undercooked and stuck together. Chewy would be a good description. The entree was bland and flavorless.
A decent chain like Panchero's would clean up here.

Central Mass is not much better. Most of the places that I have been too are pretty bad. I found one that was tolerable.
We stopped at a place last weekend that was near the Conn. border. I was originally thinking "this is all right" and then I realized how much my expectations have been lowered.
However, the Italian and Vietnamese places are much much better.
No come on. Im sure i can think of another place with the initials UT thats better....it doesn't that much to be above UT-knoxville
I honestly don't know. Some of my students recommend some place, but I think its out by Medford. I haven't been there or found a good spot yet.
Irregardless to whether it makes sense or not.
I despise Panchero's.
It's far from the authentic stuff, but that's asking a lot up this way.
Even a Taco Bell would make a billion dollars in Manchester.

It could be a lot better. And I think it's existence might help keep Chipotle or one of the better versions out.
much better than in worcester. i'm no expert on mexican food or nuthin, but there's some good ones around me.
I quite like El Pelon Taqueria in the Fenway area - cheap, and they've got this great burrito with plantains called "The El Guapo".
I've heard tell of very good Mexican food hidden away in the suburbs, but I've never checked up on it to find names or anything.
I'd be shocked if they haven't done a Mexican food show at some point.
What Boston does really well in the food department tends more toward Italian and seafood restaurants, but it's not all that's here.
You like Pho BL?
Frak I love Pho. six dollars for a bowl of yummy beefiness and noodle.
OT I know, but speaking of "Mole", everytime I flip on CNN, it's got Anderson Frakking Cooper on it... arrrgghhh.
Maybe they can feed him to Helen Thomas or something.
The best Mexican food I ever had was in Kumamoto, JApan. The place used the fresh seafood available in the area to make these variety plates of super-light, diversly flavorful tostadas.
Everytiem I have Mexican in Taipei I have a hissy fit over how bad it is.
Mexican is nto the worst food offense though. Everytime I have a bagel I want to stab somebody in the eye with a burning menorah. The bagels here dishonour the Jewish people, they are THAT bad.
Tu Y Yo in Somerville right (next to Tufts) is great. No chips & salsa, no burritos. Just authentic food and some swell sangria. Mmm sangria...
Since I was the one who wrote the above words, I should also mention what has since ensued. Almost immediately, I got an e-mail from Keith expressing his apology if he’d forgotten about the bet, but that he was more than willing to make good on it. And since the latest BP Annual is already many months old, he offered to substitute a copy of Baseball Between The Numbers. Which just arrived today from Amazon.
So needless to say, I now see Keith Law in a new light, and since my original accusation was made in public, it’s only right that the followup should be posted as well. Thanks to Keith for proving himself a gentleman; not everyone would have done what he did, especially considering the tone of my original words.

seconded.
I thought you *won* the bet?
Correct. Although Mexican is the one cuisine I found lacking in Toronto's food scene.
Good Mexican in my area of Boston...
Olé in Inman Square
Zócalo in Cambridge (formerly Olé, I don't think it's as good since the name/owner change, but their guacamole is tops around here)
Ixtapa in Lexington (great for takeout too - they give you a big bag of chips and plenty of their homemade salsa)
I've only been to the Forest Cafe in Cambridge for drinks & trivia, but lots of folks swear by their food. I'll vote Dali in Inman for sangria, but the food is Spanish, not Mexican.
Never been to Tu Y Yo; looked to me like foodie Mexican food, which isn't my style. Besides, if I hoof it to Davis Square, I'm going to Redbones.
Keith is good people.
