A fusion of Mexican and Italian. Sounds great. Lucky You.

Keep her.

A bit of advice from someone who has been happily married for almost 50 years, always say Yes Dear as if you mean it. And don’t forget your anniversary. And always put down the toilet seat regardless of how many bathrooms you have.

The decor is split down the middle.

They have Italian, Mexican, and a few Italian-Mexican fusion dishes on the menu.

I spent several years living within an hours drive of New Orleans. And got culinarily spoiled. That combination is worth pursuing. Thx for that info.

or there was pre-pandemic. Arrancini make a great lead-in to huachinango a la veracruzan. IIRC, the restaurant was run by a couple, one of whom was from Italy and one from Mexico.

When I was training there for 6 weeks in 2002 . . .

Was spaghetti with chili on it!

I'll have to look this up.

Cincinnati chili. All I know is - it was REALLY good!

It's not entirely nationwide but it's pretty widespread, we have it here in DC; it's the reference standard for Cincy-style chili. A big "four-way" plate (spaghetti, chili, shredded Cheddar, and diced raw onion) is an epic slice of Americana.

Spaghetti with chili on top, shredded Monterey Jack cheese and a bunch of chopped lettuce, tomato, green pepper, onion and black olives. It's a great leftover.

tacos are tacos: corn tortillas with a small amount of stuffing eaten as a snack or small meal. Just because one uses similar spices to make a sauce for pasta does not make it a taco anything. Would you pour ragu over tortillas and call it spaghetti pie?

Why not call it spaghetti a la Mexico or something similar?

But that's the name that people will need probably need to google if they want to find a recipe.
