Eleven years after your original post, my daughter and I--who happen to be from Bloomington, Indiana, were just in Paris and had dinner at the Indiana Café. We kept seeing them all over the city and curiosity finally won over. We enjoyed it immensely--I commented my tray of nachos tasted just like those from a restaurant in South Bend; but were also flummoxed by the American Indian Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671849181236239115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30257214.post-23123354251732425272011-06-04T13:08:26.141-05:002011-06-04T13:08:26.141-05:00Funny.

But there are differences between Mexican and Tex-Mex, as <a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/thekitchn/good-questions/whats-the-difference-texmex-vs-mexican-020300" rel="nofollow">this post tries to delineate</a>.<br /><br />Also, Texas is not immune to poorly done Tex-Mex food.

Being from the Hoosier State most of us calMexican cuisine, "Mexcian" and not "Tex Mex." The first time I saw "Indiana" I assumed that it was French for Indian and thought it was strange an Indian restaurant In ParisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30257214.post-1157146440929249112006-09-01T16:34:00.000-05:002006-09-01T16:34:00.000-05:00Bradley- you are a fiction writer, you don't have ...Bradley- you are a fiction writer, you don't have to HAVE stories, you can make them up ! <BR/><BR/>:)~k/c~https://www.blogger.com/profile/16774163432056339026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30257214.post-1157091940191062902006-09-01T01:25:00.000-05:002006-09-01T01:25:00.000-05:00Thankfully I don't have many restaurant stories li...Thankfully I don't have many restaurant stories like that one.

Well done; I consider that a sign of a timeless writer.<BR/><BR/>And thank you for updating (by about 80 years) my impressions of Paris. Maybe if Zelda and Scott had spent more time blogging instead of drinking, they would have saved themselves some serious pain--and Hemingway's A Moveable Feast would have shannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05942931078195743583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30257214.post-1157033346600930672006-08-31T09:09:00.000-05:002006-08-31T09:09:00.000-05:00Now you're blogging....Now you're blogging....~k/c~https://www.blogger.com/profile/16774163432056339026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30257214.post-1156708252186146602006-08-27T14:50:00.000-05:002006-08-27T14:50:00.000-05:00What a great story!
