so i'm in tucson for the week.. tonight is my last night, so i figured i would go enjoy some of the local cusine...

so for anyone that knows anythign about tucson, can you recommend a place within the next... 15 mins or so.. i get per diem money for meals, so i may as well get some good food.. something in the range of.. $15 - $ 30 or so.. just for one...

thanks in advance

btw, i'm staying at the comfort suites on e. tanque verde (east tucson) so somewhere nearby would be nice

edit: i'll eat pretty much anything, but i'd obviously prefer the best that tucson has to offer.. like i'd go to san francisco to have chinese food.. but in tucson i'd get what kind of food??

Mexican, find a mom and pop mexican place. You won't regret it, well at least not until the next day. ;)

You're on the wrong end of town for the best Mexican food but if you head down Kolb to Broadway there is an El Minuto on the NE corner that is very good. Get the carne seca. Too bad you didn't ask earlier, we could have sent you to some really great hole-in-the-wall Mexican places.
