i know a few good places in bergen county. For higher end food Mexicali Blues on cedar lane in teaneck is pretty good with live music later at night. For a basic taco stand El Gran Mexicano in bogota is great. Small, byo with a nice counter, clean and authentic. Nice mole. It is located across the street from the bogota ambulance corps fink

Hi I own Fink's to the person who had the "raw chicken" It was a smoked chicken, it is slow cooked to 160 degrees in our smoker, this smoking process can turn the meat around the bone red. The chicken is then refrigerated and cooked on the grill to order, again bringing it up the fully cooked temperature of 160. All good BBQ has a redness in it, it usually presents itself as a 'smoke ring' A red ring around the outside and surrounding the bones. THIS IS A SIGN OF GOOD BBQ, NOT RAW CHICKEN. If you had put that "raw" chicken in your microwave for five minutes it most likely would still be redish at the end. If you look at our ribs they have the same smoke ring, giving the meat around the bones a pinkish tinge, again a result of the long slow smoking process. Having said all that, no one is perfect, it is possible that you got a larger chicken from a batch that may not have cooked all the way through as we do check the temperatures with random samplings from each batch. If this is the case i am sorry and hope that it has not soured you on us permenantly. Finally, I have eaten Babylon's several times, It is a very nice place, with outdoor dining and delicious food. The hummus is great and the kabob's are amazing Thanks, Fink Fink's Funky Chicken and Ribs finksfunky.net
