Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Turkey day is behind us now, and, except for leftovers, we can get back to Southwestern and Mexican cuisine. Actually, a lot of the leftovers can be used in burritos, etc., but you know what I mean. And there is no better way to get back in the groove than to go out to a great restaurant.
I reported earlier that part of the new focus of this blog is to write about great Southwestern and Mexican cuisine restaurants in Arizona and New Mexico. The Arizona Republic newspaper publishes lists of great restaurants (according to the critic they use) from time to time including Southwestern and Mexican food restaurants. A few days ago they published their latest list of top 10 Mexican food restaurants in the Phoenix area. Here is the list for you. In other posts we will take a look at each one of them, especially the ones with websites.

Okay. There you have it folks. This is Howard Seftel's list. He is the dining critic for the Arizona Republic. Have you been to some of these places? If so, do you agree with him about which ones are the best? Please let us hear from you and share with other readers. Thanks!
