Delicias Mexicanas

came here to try their bacon wrapped hot dog after i seen it on chicago's best..the rating is only for the food.. i ordered 2 bacon wrapped hot dogs since it looked good on TV and 2 steak tacos... i was pretty disappointed.. there was just too much going on in that hot dog that made it not to enjoyable.. the tacos was below average.. the steak was a bit chewy.. probably wont come back..

Ok. High hopes=not met. I was really looking forward to this and after making the trip to my old hood, I stopped in to try their famed Acapulco hot dog. I ordered that and a few tacos to go. I would have ordered an Horchata but it was sitting in a bucket in the fridge. Blegh.
Now to the hot dog. It was good but nothing more. To me, it was a bit mushy and the texture was not pleasant. The taco of pastor was decent but again, I've had better. Overall, ok but since I don't like to head out to the 26th area, I'll pass.

mmm antojitos

Won't event try to translate that word.  I had passed this place a few times and always wondered how good it was. Yesterday I was driving by and decided to stop and eat here. The place is .... mm typical.

They used to sell hot dogs on the corner of 26th and St Louis, I ate there a couple of times (usually to go, the hood wasn't as safe as it is now) the dogs used to be amazing and sometimes when street vendors get a place, sometimes the food loses the flavor.

Not this one I had a bacon hot dog with all the fixings and it was great. I also had a mushroom quesadilla and that was off the roof good. They can be either grilled or deep fried, I opted for the grilled and was great decision. It comes with sour cream (which is so flavorful BTW), lettuce and avocado, simply delicious.
My dinner companion had chicken flautas. They were good but not amazing.

The service is super nice, attentive and helpful with the menu. Proof of that is that they also offer deep fried plantains with either sour cream and crumbled cheese, or sour cream and condensed milk. I wanted to try both but did not want to have two orders after all the food that we had already ordered. As I was debating the waitress said "tell you what we will make half with cheese and half with milk"  that was cool of them. So I got to try both and they were different but good.  I would suggest to have the one with cream and cheese as a side dish with the food because it is more on the savory side. The one with cream and condensed milk, totally a dessert, was really good. You get the sweetness form the plantain followed by the sour cream and then more sweet from the milk, weird but work perfectly.

DM worth to check out, specially for the bacon hot dogs and the quesadillas
