South America has its variant for tacos and burritos. I said tacos and burritos for the sake of making it easier. And Mexico is arguably in Central America. But you may be too young to remember that (Pluto was a planet, btw). Yes, dear old larvanale is old :(

Mexico is in North America for the NAFTA, geographically central america and arguably south america if you look at the crime rate.

wrong. geographically central america is that small thin bit that connects south and north america. thats a fact, no arguably about it. google north america and see what comes up. i think you mean culturaly. then yes, its latin america.

That's why i said you may be too young to remember. Until the end '80s, Mexico was the central part of central America.

To give you a more modern example, is Pluto a planet?

I'm old too and I clearly remember the teacher menacing hand whenever i tried to contradict him. It was in schoolbooks too. It's true that Eastern Europe didn't have the most reliable history books but for me, Mexico can never be anywhere else than in Central America, at least geographically. Puzzled

Ignoring all geographical ambiguities, there are actually loads of mexican/south american cuisine restaurants in China. In Shanghai there's a ton, most famous are run by Jabba the Hutt lookalike Eduardo Vargas, including Chicha (Peruvian cuisine) and Azul.

Beijing has its fair share too, including Migas, and the one that gives away free sombreros in Sanlitun. Just follow the sombreros, you'll find it.

I too love Mehican food, but it makes me so sleepy... time for a siesta!

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
