East Coast vs. West Coast

I ordered the chopped salad at Bonita on Bedford for my last day in New York before heading back home to the Bay Area. I was totally happy with my salad and it's slightly spicy lime vinaigrette, but I can't say it was necessarily all that related to what I think of as Mexican food. Of course, maybe I should have ordered the tacos or a quesadilla in order to really experience this place, but I'd been hearing all week about how much better Mission burritos are back in San Francisco as opposed to anywhere in New York and how nothing will ever compare to eating Mexican food in California.

I'm betting maybe Mexican food in Mexico.
