Everyone always asks me what my absolute, most favorite Mexican restaurant in Oklahoma City is. Normally, I shrug and say “How do I choose?”
I don’t know why, but a lot of the time, I feel like I have to keep the place to myself, like my own little secret, my own place no one knows about. Maybe it’s a fear of gentrification, maybe it’s a fear of the place changing, maybe it’s the fear of that look I see in the eyes of friends who I bring here who just don’t “get it.”
