Another sure sign that spring is here (even if the weather sucks today) is the annual HAWC walk in Salem.

One of the topics that comes up here and perhaps in any discussion around town that revolves around food is Salems lack of a good Mexican restaurant. Sure we have Cilantro but people are always looking for a burrito joint, someplace akin to Anna’s Taqueria in Davis Square.
