I recently got back from a trip to Mexico and one thing that I liked over there foodwise was that many restaurants had a comal that was separate from the main kitchen (and usually manned by an older woman). Some of them had a separate "from the comal" section on their menus for quesadillas, tlayudas, etc. The dishes that were prepared on the comal had noticeable char and nice flavor and texture, similar to what you'd get from a wood-fired pizza oven. Are there any Mexican restaurants here that make food in this style?
