It may be far too small for a Fodors Choice restaurant, but if you have the chance, try The CASA ANTIGUA in Cuatepec, VER near Xalapa. The chef has a very good knowledge of Mexican Food, Cuatepec is the centre of the best coffe (try a lechero) His spicy fish soup is unbelievable. I really had the best meals there.

Actually there is quite a lot fresh Chorizo here in spain. Many people have it at the BB wich is very tasty. The fresh chorizo vary in tatste from vilage to vilage because the recepy is a very personal thing similar as the paella. I don´t know much about the northern part of Spain, I live in Andalucia..
