As an official connoisseur of Mexican food, I set out on a mission to find the best hole-in-the-wall Mexican joint in Gtown since moving to BV 2 months ago. Even though I used to have a beach house in Pirates Cove years ago on the west end, I never really ventured DT except for Rudy & Paco once in a while.
