Trying Tex Mex

Some of the so-called Mexican restaurants in the area are not authentic Mexican restaurants but are Tex Mex. The people who are really from Mexico know the difference, but I don’t know how to tell. I think the Tex Mex is what they mean when the food is based on certain Mexican dishes but has been adapted to better suit American taste. So I try all the different little Mexican restaurants that open up and see if I like their food. So far, I have one favorite place and only two that I won’t go back to.
