Great fajitas and breakfast tacos. I'm visiting SF, actually Hayward Ca., on business and there are a lot of the "roach coaches" here. One guy is reputed to have over 90 of these all over the area. He IS licensed and they are quite clean, serving much better food than the "regular" restaurants. ======================= This doesn't mean that there are not unlicensed vendors out there. Nor does it mean that they are all clean and following code. Maybe the guy has actually seen what he said he saw. Maybe the responder KNOWS the poster, has seen him post before and with a racial slant. If so, I stand corrected BUT if not, to label him a racist is completely off base and wrong and normally a response by those who have their own "racist" agenda of supporting the various laws breaking by the huge number of illegal aliens flooding in over our borders. Actually, has nothing to do with race. People are flooding in from everywhere including Eastern Europe, Africa, the Orient, Mideast, South America, some parts of regular Europe, just about everywhere. With 7 billion people in the world, and our US population growing at grossly increasing, unprecedented numbers, many think that it has to stop someplace before we finally finish overtaxing our environment and cause irreversible, very serious, harm. Getting tired of hearing that anyone who is alarmed by the huge increase in our population with a rate of growth exceeding that of most "third world" countries, is a racist of some sort. Many of us, of every nationality and race, limited the number of our offspring and we actually succeeded in lowering our population rate of increase to just slightly above replacement level. This progress has been obliterated by the massive influx of people crowding in over our borders. Sorry to say it but the wild, unbounded, untamed west is gone and will never return and it is about time people started to realize it. I'll get of the soapbox and promise to not bring it up again. Obviously way off topic. =============== On topic, the food, in general, here in Ca. is NOT as good as that in Houston. Barbecue is just plain BAD, Mexican is nowhere as good as I get at home (except on the roach coaches) and most of the various oriental variations are very sub par when compared to the Houston area. Sushi is generally more available and good but no better than I get in Houston. Pizza in not as good as in many places in Houston. Far less places to have a decent breakfast. Now, this isn't on the piers etc. but is true, in general, outside the city proper.
