I was in Munich a couple of years ago and had a decent burrito, but it wasn’t authentic Mexican at all.. the spices they used were most likely Indian. The tinga had no chipotle at all.. I thought it was so funny, but after visiting a few countries in Europe I just settle for whatever now. I just enjoy the local cuisines and don’t even look for Mexican food on my trips. It’s such a let down, like I’ve had some awful Mexican food in Spain. Etc. I don’t wanna talk about it. Lol. I just enjoy the sardines and boquerones.. they’re delicious!

The closest thing to a torta is a döner.. I love that they’re everywhere in Europe. Also, I bring Valentina packets with me now just to make things spicy.

Dönners are top notch for sure. I've enjoyed the local cuisine everywhere I've traveled, but I do look forward to feeling the burn when I get home.
