Or could it be that you just prefer what you got at home?

I grew up in Phoenix and love going back for the amazing Mexican food. From more established places like Los Dos Molinos to the little out of the way dives, there is no way you can convince me that Phoenix doesn't have good Mexican food. Tex-Mex I don't care about but I've spent plenty of time in Mexico too and Phoenix has great Mexican.

Also note that Los Dos bills itself as New Mexican cuisine (meaning from New Mexico, not Neo-Mexican). At least they used to. I haven't been there in years, though I love it.

To be fair, Arizona used to be part of New Mexico

And New Mexico used to be part of Mexico.

And Mexico used to be part of the Spanish Empire, and Spain...

Only for 38 years though.

Mexican independence: 1810

US acquires New Mexico: 1848

Los Dos Molinos just makes their food way too hot, no subtlety to it.
