★★★★☆

“If Bourdain has been here then you know this place is worthy of a visit!”

A $35-peso plate of fried chicken necks (buches), fried tender enough to eat bones and cartilage too, with salsa and tortillas. Praised the friendly, fluent-English staff despite the sketchy red-light-district location, a short walk from the border.
