 Tex-Mex in Amoy! Sue and I were thrilled a few years back to see a poster like this outside a Xiamen shop!  But the shop, called "The Mexican," sold clothing, not food. 

I was devastated, because I've craved authentic Mexican food ever since we came to Xiamen in 1988.  Over the years, a few Image courtesy of Graphics Diva . comXiamen restaurants have claimed to serve up Mexican Cuisine (or "Latin", or "Cuban,"), but they've been a poor approximation of the real thing.  But in the Fall of 2008.Ron Underwood opened Coyote Cafe & Cantina, which serves up not just Mexican but Tex-Mex, which is my favorite, second only to Chinesed food (I may be prejudiced, given that I've lived in Texas longer than anywhere but Xiamen).  Coyote Cafe & Cantina is authentic, right down to the hot tortilla chips and Pico de Gallo salsa. 

Executive Chef Ron Underwood has been in Xiamen since 2002, but his passion is cooking--for which all of us Amoy inmates are thankful.

And you can't beat the waterfront lowcation--right on Yuandang Lagoon, near the Marco Polo and Sofitel hotels.
