Corn et al in Tijuana 2007...

Anyway, so all this corn-ness segues into my quest for grilled corn in Tijuana actually (as in Mexico). I went there back in January 2007 with my elementary school posse Giang and Marvin (who apparently is MIA now), and Christina. All for the corn behbeh. ALL FOR THE CORN. and cerveza. and lucha libre gear. :) and...just to go to TJ for shits and giggles (FYI: u park, and walk across.)

It was not the usual cheese, and it was boiled instead of grilled. I was disappointed--nay--I was loathe to find it subpar to my aggrandizing...corn..ness...internal dialogue..of...corn. :( le poo!
But we DID get some kick ass ceviche, beef tortas, tacos, and horchata (rice milk thing w/ a little cinnamon).
And beers. All for like 8 or 18 bucks i can't remember but there were 4 of us and we ate a lot and drank a lot. not just the dos equis. horchata. HORRRRRCHATA! (think shikaka but...horchata. you don't even know what i'm talking about.)
We also had churros--fresh and greasy as hell!! You know it's good when it's transparent :P
We also bought a huge stash of those chili lime pasted watermelon lolipops, and the lime/salt powder (lucas limon) that u could put on fruits and veggies (or if u were redonk like me, eat it as is). OHhHGhghaghghhghghhg (homer noises). This...is the crazieset thing u'll ever eat--totally beats Warheads and all that other sour crap. Utterly abysmal thing to do to ur tongue but who CARES (also comes in spicy). TEEHEE!
Good times to be had in TJ--even if u didn't buy prescription drugs, feed a painted mule, or party w/ DJ Quik like another underaged gringo from Newport Beach as we're all familiar with. See exhibit Uno above of Barney the mule-zebra.

And exhibit Dos...(complete with Tamiflu!):
The walk over & back is quick--the wait to cross back into CA at the border is a BIATCH b/c it's so damn long...but overall...delish :) Also...what's a trip to TJ without a lucha libre mask? (complete with cape?)
