More Bethlehem Mexican

Mexico Lindo - 720 Main Street, 610-691-5141
2 blocks north of Downtown Bethlehem's historic area

I just noticed that I have an high concentration of Mexican restaurants on this blog. Well, that says something about both the blogger and the region in which he's dining. It also gives the ability to fairly compare and contrast their offerings. Today's lunch at Mexico Lindo required those comparison skills.

This marked my first-ever visit to the establishment, though I've passed it 100s of times on my way to 378. It's a small, end-of-row restaurant with limited signage. It's worth looking for. I had some enchiladas mole, topped with the richest, most complex mole I've had in this area. The chicken-stuffed enchilads were tender and not overstuffed. A side of authentic Mexican rice and frioles rounded out the meal. The server also brought crunchy tortilla chips and a small bowl of green salsa (studded with chopped cilantro) that had a nice bite. Lunch with a Diet Coke came to $9.83.

I plan to return to Mexico Lindo with others soon so I can sample other menu items. If my guests let me get my fork in, that is. I'll certainly be guarding my platter.

I want to thank the blogger very much not only for this post but also for his all previous efforts. I found www.beyondscrapple.com to be extremely interesting. I will be coming back to www.beyondscrapple.com for more information.
