I pretty much like it all, but Del Taco is better than Taco Bell. The best food is not usually at the Swanky places, it's where the locals go. I'm plebeian. :)

Agreed on all counts. Del Taco is better, marginally. Yes, the food carts can be a little risky in Mexico, but we had some great food in Acapulco (cruise stop) from a lady that had set up a small kitchen on the side walk, and she had two tiny tables with plastic stools (not even chairs). More than a food cart, since it wasn't really a cart. I think she took it all apart every night to go home, though I didn't witness it. Swanky is not on the menu when we travel. I like places where I have to use my Google translate (or my rusty Spanish) to order, where no one speaks English. Peasant food. So good.

Don't get ice in whatever beverage you get...it's just frozen water, and they are serious about "don't drink the water". Often safe, but not always.
