A few blocks from home on Benito Juarez between Fco. I Madero and Lazaro Cardenas is a favorite lunch spot known as "Rinconcita de Ensenada". Rincon means a nook or corner. Rinconcita means a little nook or corner, in this case of Ensenada. Often Mexicans when they leave their home area, incorporate it into their restaurant name. Probably to tip off the discerning consumer that this is the cuisine of Ensenada or maybe it's just to honor their roots, some regional pride.
The tacos here are really delicious. They have a few different things on the menu, but I can't seem to get past the fish tacos. I'm not the only who feels this way, there is a definite fan club. I realized this when a lady called my wife from the US to ask her how they made their chilli sauce and said that she dreams about the fish tacos. I wonder what Carl Jung would say? Anyway... you have battered, deep fried fish with several delicious sauces and hand made tortillas just a few minutes old. Mmmmmmmm....
And of course the family lives just upsatirs so they have a very short commute. Look at the smiles!
