Like I said, I love good Mexican food. I went to a Mexican restaurant in
Edinburgh, Scotland and, after a few bites, I realized how far Mexico is
from Scotland. OTOH, I found a "real" Mexican restaurant in Antwerp that
was open until 2AM, which was great since our days began at 7AM & ended
about midnight.

Do you remember the name of the Antwerp place?

I don't remember the name, but it was just a few blocks from Central
Station. We stayed at Hotel Florida, right beside Central Station. I
believe the restaurant was one block behind Hotel Florida, and, maybe
two blocks farther from Central Station.

BTW, I mentioned my cat recently. Directly behind hotel Florida (same
street as the Mexican Restaurant IIRC) there was a bar with a resident
cat. The cat had the run of the place. And there was a young lady with a
poodle.

You can see my photos from Belgium (including the cat & dog)& my first
trip to Korea on my MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/dennysquonk ,
but you might have to join MySpace to view them. There are also a number
of other photos, as well.

If you ever make it to Amsterdam let me know and I will clear my schedule,
fly over there and take you to Balti House which is by far the best Indian
food I have had outside of India.

It's on Albert Cuyp Straat. It is excellent.
