    One of the best taquitos in TJ. Parking is challenging, but it's well worth it. Definitely a must try.

    Sabrosos Elotes y Vasitos - "The Corn Guy" stands beside his cart, in front of Hotel La Pasada, between customers.

    Sabrosos Elotes Y Vasitos is quite a grandiose name for a corn cart, especially for a street vendor…read morewho only sells elotes. But what's in a name, when a street vendor sells delicious corn? I actually visited "Sr. Elote" in September, 2018, and I'm just getting around to publishing my review. Sorry for the delay... Early every evening, the operator of this Sabrosos Elotes, I'll call him "The Corn Guy," begins his rounds under the famous Tijuana Arch, and the corner of Articulo 123 and Av. Revolución. Depending on business, he may spend his whole evening under the arch, catering to locals and tourists alike. But if it's a slow night, I've seen him push his cart downhill, down Av. Revolución, and wind up on Av. Coahuila, or on "The Alley," in front of one of the many honky tonk bars that line the streets of the infamous Zona Norte. He'll wait in front of such dives as Adelitas or Hong Kong Club for bar patrons to stumble out of the bars, intoxicated by too much booze or too many hookers... nothing like an ear of corn after spending time with an escort, or watching the showgirls at one of the many neighborhood nightclubs. In most parts of Mexico, elotes are roasted corn on the cob, sold from a corn cart by a street vendor, and the corn is usually roasted, or grilled, over hot coals, on-site. However in Tijuana, elotes are usually boiled rather than roasted, and that's the way "The Corn Guy" sells his corn, as it's boiled in a large pan that sits on top of his cart. Salt, pepper, lime juice, mayonnaise and hot sauce are offered as condiments. The customers can choose the corn according to their preference, as Sabrosos Elotes Y Vasitos sells the corn on the cob as an elote, or as an esquite, which is when the kernels are cut from the cob and placed in a styrafoam cup, with the condiments mixed in. Either way its presented, the cooked corn makes a delicious snack! I caught up with Sabrosos Elotes Y Vasitos as he had parked his cart in front of the Hotel La Posada, on the north side of Articulo 123, across from the plaza, just west of the arch, and got to watch "The Corn Guy" in action, selling corn and waiting on customers. Most of his customers seemed to prefer their corn in a cup, sold as an esquite; I prefer my corn on the cob. I took the plunge and purchased an elote from "The Corn Guy" at Sabrosos Elotes Y Vasitos. He asked me what toppings I wanted, and I told him mayonnaise, lime juice and hot sauce. He grabbed an ear of corn from a pile that was warming in the tub, out of the water, squeezed chipotle mayonnaise on it, applied picante sauce, and doused the elote with lime juice. He handed me the corn, and I handed him MEX $8.00, which was the price of the elote. I prefer my corn grilled or roasted, rather than boiled, but when you're on the streets of Tijuana's Zona Norte, the corn is boiled, and Sabrosos Elotes Y Vasitos cooks delicious corn. The corn was cooked perfectly, as it was firm, with just a bit of crunch, and the condiments were fresh and tasty. Not to mention that "The Corn Guy" is quite friendly... but during the time of my visit he was quite busy, so I really didn't get the chance to chat with him. Sabrosos Elotes Y Vasitos makes great elotes in Tijuana's Zona Norte! You'll love their fine corn, you'll love their friendly banter, and you'll enjoy amazing corn, either on the cob, or in a bowl, mixed with hot sauce salt, pepper, lime juice and mayonnaise. Any you you look at it, Sabrosos Elotes Y Vasitos steams amazing corn, on Av. Revolucion, in downtown Tijuana, under the arch.

    Sabrosos Elotes y Vasitos - This customer doesn't want to eat her corn on the cob, so Sr. Elote will remove the kernels and place them in one of the styrafoam cups.

    Another fun foodie destination in TJ: outdoors, hip decor, and with a variety of food/drink options…read morespanning classic tacos through mediterranean food. The day was just beginning, so I opted for an 8oz lager from Insurgente to start the day. Service from the bar was friendly - the bartender provided multiple tasters and recommendations. This crisp and refreshing definitely hit the spot for under $2. My friend had a trio of tacos and sangria. The food was fairly priced, came out quickly, and tasty (I tried a bite). Definitely an option to keep in mind for group dining. Looking forward to returning to try out more!

    I hate to say it, but this food court was quite a disappointment. I was looking for a place that…read morespecializes in chilaquiles, a vast variety of them, but found the Yelp page to be unaware of that location's closing. So, short on time, we opted to eat from one of the other food stalls, and found one with, you guessed it, a few varieties of chilaquiles. They did look wonderful on the plate, and were seemingly perfectly executed, complete with sunny egg and nicely coated chips. The one with shredded beef had very tasty beef, but suffered, as did the house special variety, from a lack of flavor overall. Both dishes were just quite bland in the same way, and lacked any excitement of flavors. We didn't finish them, and opted not to take the leftovers. Beverages: I ordered a mezcalita, having had an excellent one at Telefonico a couple of weeks prior, and hoping to have something similar. Instead of a smaller cocktail with a kick, this was extremely watery and had a commercial taste to it. I didn't finish this either. I only had food from one of the places, so can't judge the rest, but I don't see myself going back. Bland food from one and a miserable drink from another don't suggest good odds.
