Yes
While we are talking Mexican - the BEST corn tortillas around, IMO, and with only corn and lime as ingredients are found at El Mercadito on 98. They take me back to my days in Mexico and I buy several packages at a time and put them in the freezer as they will not keep like the ones on the grocery store shelves- due to lack of preservatives. ?Ay, qu? rico!
Now, back to the Pepitos thread

Speaking of good corn tortillas, you need to try the ones I have found. If you are in the Ft Walton area it's worth a stop. The place is Mi Gente, 699 Beal Parkway. 850-581-3800. They make them fresh every morning and the are outstanding (IMO). They usually run out in the afternoons. They have a couple of big coolers and keep them warm. They stay pretty good in the refrigerator for a week. Guess you can freeze them I never have. Next week for the holidays they are going to be selling homemade tamales. I have never tried them but am going to...probably next week. I'll let everyone know. The cost of their tortillas is $2.50 for a package (36). Not too bad for homemade that day!
It also is a market and taco place. I have not tried any of the food but always smells great in the place. And they are so nice.
Think I'll add a new post of this.

Awesome!!! Love me some Pepitos!!!!
Where is Pepitos in Destin?
A strip mall near Olde Tyme Pottery.
I ate there a couple of times when I first moved here about 6 years ago. Haven't been back in awhile because I can't justify the drive, but they have really good queso.
Gidget, I agree about El Mercadito. The beef sandwich is great. They use the best bread for all of their sandwiches. Their Cuban sandwich is top-notch, too.
Thanks!
