For those of you who saw this picture and assumed that we have a new mexican restaurant in town, well, you haven't lived in Africa. Anyone who read Thai 'minus' Mex would be correct. I can see how the context clues, the man in the sombrero, might have thrown you off. Although I don't know how you could understand our disappointment seeing as how you have probably had some quality mexican food in the past year and a half.

That moment when we were seated at the table, commenting about how nice the picnic table surroundings were, how green the yard was...excitement was in the air. The waitress brought out the menus and we flipped through just looking for the mexican pages. Then we got to the end of the menu, a little confused, and turned it over to look a little more slowly, searching for any dish with an English name that might could be construed as Mexican. Finally we asked our non-Thai but some type of East Asian waitress who, in turn, called over the Indian owner who said that there was no Mexican, only delicious Thai.

So we had Thai food. It could have been the best Thai food ever but it wasn't Mexican and so it just wasn't that good.
