Tlaxcala, Mexico State Fair Food Items (Bobby Cox)

Dick... these are some things they sell at the Tlaxcala State Fair (food items) that are popular... Bunuelo stand... a sort of a crispy fried elephant ear ...they put syrup or honey on it.($1 dollar).Churro stand...churros look like a stick shaped doughnut...sometimes they have centers filled with chocolate or vanilla cream.(about 4 for a dollar)Also they had baked plantains (bananas) with cream & sugar ($1 dollar)Arabian Tacos... my favorite.. looks like a gyro..but they serve it on a thick flour tortilla and smother it with chipotle chili sauce.. (about $1.25). oh yeh! its hot for a gringo...but I've built up a resistance. If the U.S. Health Dept would allow it ...it would be one hell of a joint.Arabian Tacos got started around this area about 60 years ago...theres a large Lebanese population...they've been here since early 1900's...they've been Mexicanized. Take Care...(or as my buddy Jack the Ripper sez... take it anyway you can get it!!!...Bob
