Lots of fish and shrimp, lite on the hot, in West Coast Mex, say
Zihuatanejo up thru Mazatlan. Coco's in Zihua alone is worth the
ticket.
But at least 10-15 years ago you could find many diff varieties of
good Mex and Latin American food in LA. My faves were Yucatec and
Uruguayan/Argentine. Least fave . . . Cuban (heavy, bland, wired on
coffee, politics and cigar smoke). Now a Tampa style lunch, Cuban pork
sandwich with beans and rice, thats a whole nuther thang.
