Posts: 12Almost did it
You can, but you may got stopped at border but most likely let in, Hassled on the way back. So a friend and I decided to head to Tijuana for first time, him with his expired passport, state ID and birth certificate me just my state ID and birth certificate, we were initially going to drive across and head into Mexico in a rental car with Mexican insurance purchases thru (fox rental car 60 usd daily which was including 31$ Mexican insurance you must have Mexican Insurance while driving in Mexico) we went to agency and were given hell for not reserving days before so decided to drive to otay border, we had nothing to declare so just parked and crossed via the bridge and took a cab Into downtown Tijuana, on the way back walked to gate showed ID got sent to right side and was thru in 15-20 minutes after showing documentation, it depends on who you get when crossing back, just state a simple honest activity you did while in Tijuana and your knowledge of your hometown and basic American questions, speak proper English and realize that they have been dealing with hundreds of people so some appreciation in your tone for them letting you back home goes a long way.

Posts: 6522The taco restaurant on Coahula & Ninos
The taco stand on Coahula & Ninos now also owns the restaurant next to it. The same guys alternate doing the cooking at both. They sell the same taco Al Pastor with pork grilled on the spindle for 18 pesos.
The restaurant also sells other cuts of beef, like grilled brisket and offals with all sorts of condiments, grilled green onion, Serrano pepper etc. And a few tables to sit down. They make a special tacos with 2 large soft taco shells grilled with cheese and any sorts of meat you want inside, like a 10-inch double pizza for 45 pesos.
I had them fill it with grilled beef and pork, it was a lot tastier and juicier than the normal Al Pastor. It was a big and delicious meat pizza, I could only ate half and was full. Gave the untouched half to HKs chubby valet parking guy. Don't remember what they call it, may be "Paloma," but just ask the cook for tacos con quesos and he would bring out the large soft tacos shells.
That restaurant has some of the freshest and tastiest food anywhere. You can hang out next to the chefs and tell them how well to cook the meat.

Posts: 775Night 2
So, I crossed the border last night. Now I know the new routine. I get to immigration. Show the guard my passport and form from last night. He immediately asks where I'm going. I say dinner. He looks at my form, and says its good for 7 days. Says next time, just walk through with the Mexicans.
After my session at HK, I go to my favorite taco stand, in the corner by Chicago. Doesn't look the same. No scwarma. Very few condiments. Need a new taco stand that's clean and good?

Posts: 37CBP Questions
I have lived in Tijuana 11 years and I have determined that they are trained to ask certain questions at that hole in GA where they are trained.
1. What was the purpose for your trip to Mexico? Reply; I have a second home down by Rosarito. Never say you live there! From Penasco I say "Chicas and margaritas" They usually don't pursue that one.
2. Where are you going? Reply: Whatever your auto Reg shows.
3. How far is that? Or Where is that?, Etc. Reply: The truth. They know and are trying to see if you are nervous. I once had a guy question me thoroughly about Parowan, Ut like it was a mystery to him. When he let me go he told me he went to UT State! They know!
4. Where do you work? Reply (my usual) I work for Social Security and I don't even have to punch in: they just send me a check.
5 Is this your car? Reply: No, It's Wells Fargo Banks'.
You can always tell when you get a an FNG because they ask all of those questions and the line is slower than the ones on either side.
Going the other way I get a red light about 3 times a year. I once got it with a new LG 39 inch TV in the back seat. She said "That's Ok it's only a small one. Do you have any cigarettes or liquor. " Have never paid customs on anything.
