I don’t know how I manage it, but I would guarantee I get more hate mail than any other food blogger.  Considering the comedic value of this stuff I have decided to start sharing it with my loyal readers. 

This email was from Maria in Geneva about my post on Louisa’s one of the worst Mexican restaurants at which I have ever eaten:

Wow! At first I was appalled at Mark´s comments about Luisa´s Mexican Grill until I read his other comments on other restaurants. Whew! I think Mark needs to lose some weight and find a woman who can cook for him to his specs. Then he wouldn´t have to worry about losing chorizo between his fat-rolls while eating tacos naked laying on the couch alone!

My husband and I eat weekly at Luisa´s and we love it. My husband has been in the USA only two years and in his 46 years of living in Mexico, has never eaten a burrito, chimichanga, nachos or fajitas. This food is not traditional Mexican. Do your homework Mark and go to www.foodtimeline.org and educate yourself on the subject before you think you know it all. Oh, by the way, I would never buy packaged chorizo. It´s nasty. Fresh is the way to go. We never have a difficult time finding Luisa´s open. The hours are posted clearly on the front window. Maybe they are odd hours, but they suit Luisa`s schedule just fine. By the way, Luisa is 2 1/2 years old and is bi-lingual and knows that mui bueno is correctly spelled muy bueno. She also knows what horchata is. It´s the rice water that you just recently figured out what it was. Two tortillas don´t constitute authentic. It´s a personal preference. I guess you would prefer two tortillas for the carbs and I´m sure you enjoyed the free sour cream on the tacos at the Latin Cornier (now closed). This was the Latin Corner`s way of Americanizing their food to satisfy stupid Americans like you who drench everything in sour cream. Again, calories!

Apparently you cannnot tell the difference between Mexican people and Puerto Rican people. If you could, you would notice that Geneva is predominantly Puerto Rican. Do your homework! On the other hand, stay the hell out of Geneva. By the way, that blond, white lady cooking started her business by refurbishing an old camping trailor into a concession trailor and sold authentic Mexican food at the hispanic soccer games, Latin Festivals and now has her own restaurant. We have been following her and her food for years. Yes, sometimes it takes awhile to get our food, but at least we know it was cooked for us fresh instead of sitting in a steam table all day. It is always worth the wait. Oh, and by the way, the guacamole is to die for. It is made to order and served in the avacado shell. We understand all these details take time. You should be there when they are sorting beans looking for rocks before they cook them or hand mashing the beans as they are being re-fried. I`d rather see this than outsourcing their work by purchasing everything in a bag, can or box. I bet you think quesadillas are a Mexican Pizza. You have been Taco Bell-ized and don´t even know it. We will continue to patronize her restaurant and refer people whenever we can. It is the best Mexican food we have found unless we go to Mexico. Good luck to you. I hope you find happiness and inner peace.

I swear to God I did not add one word to that.  Maria, thanks for visiting the site, but you should be writing for George Lopez, you’re missing your calling baby!
