Frontera Grill is wonderful IMO. Topolobampo is amazing. As a chef, I felt totally humbled when I ate at Topolobampo. The food I’ve had there ranks among the most incredible food I’ve eaten. It blew me away.

We had pheasant, duck, pork, beef and fish, all with great components. Each and every dish was unique and delicious. Different chiles, different heat levels and a freshness and complexity that too much food in this country lacks.

I’ve posted several times about too much salt being the main flavor in a lot of roadfood. You don’t need to use an overload of salt if your ingredients are good and your technique is solid.

This good to hear—i trust your opinions and whis was the impression i got fromwatch his tv show—-what he did with fish looked fabulous—especially one that he did on the beach with a fish fresh from the sea that he smeared with a rich pepper based paste and cooked in a two side-long handle rack over a wood fire![:p] I saw that he did a lot with game on the Topolobampo menu and was intrigued—done a lot of mexican–but never any game–looked wonderful!
