The recent shifting of the weather (a bit, it's still waaaay too hot for October) meant a shift in our eating as well. We've posted on these places many, many times, so I thought I'd C(lear) O(ut the) M(emory) C(ard).
Aqui es Texcoco:
A lovely Mixiote and a milky, salty(in a good way), Quesataco with huitlacoche, which added a nice earthy flavor to the crunchy, oozy-gooey, texture.
And of course I've noted how much the Missus loves the Plato Azteca. The Missus almost considers this combination; nopales with two choices which are always huitlacoche (of course) and flor de calabaza (squash blossom).

Banh Mi Bo Kho from Pho Lucky:
Full of tendon, tangy, savory, richer than usual……

777 Noodlehouse:
While I think Ly Heng now makes a better version of Phnom Penh Noodles, I still think this place is quite a bargain.
The Shrimp Fried Rice is very "old school".
And the simple Pig Intestine with Preserved Vegetable, which has become comfort food for me.
Sour from the preserved mustard greens, which along with the bean sprouts add a crunch. I love the earthy flavors from the intestine. Nothing fancy, not earth-shattering …….just good cheap eats.
Plus, I love the folks who work here…….
