My favorite Mexican Restaurants in California and Arizona...

When I travel, I'm always looking for new places to eat.  However, there are some places that I have to stop by and visit on every trip.  I frequently travel to Arizona and California on my quest for rare books.  These are the places I eat on every trip to CA and AZ.  My favorite Mexican restaurant in Arizona is "Rancho de Tia Rosa" in Mesa http://www.ranchodetiarosa.com  I usually order the following items:  green corn tamales, fish tacos, mango-chicken salad and fried ice cream for dessert.  I've tried "fried ice cream" at over 100 Mexican restaurants--and Tia Rosa's is my favorite.

When I'm in Los Angeles I prefer "El Cholo" http://www.elcholo.com  I love their "green corn tamales".  However, they're only available May-October.   When there are no "green corn tamales" I order "Annie's Early California Enchilada (a veggie enchilada with garden fresh vegetables: spinach,  red peppers, sautéed mushrooms, Jack cheese, corn and tomato salsa--and their secret ingredient: pecans.

When I'm looking for something fast I like "Señor Baja" http://www.senorbajarestaurant.com  I usually order three fish tacos and three potato tacos with a bottled Mexican soda: Jarritos Limon.
