But, about as close as I've gotten to that was when some Mexican friends of my husband (many years ago) showed us how to just barely fry/warm up a flour tortilla in a skillet with just a little grease, fill it with taco ingredients, roll it up in sort of a square to hold it together and put a toothpick in it also to hold it together.  We fell in love with our "new" tacos and have never made any other kind since.So, I'm sure I would enjoy a Traditional Mexican Fiesta if the food is half as good as our new taco was and, from the content of this Mexican Recipe book, that would surely be the case.I really liked the intro to this book; I felt it really set a good tone for the book.I enjoyed the author's stories and history that accompanied the recipes.  It sort of whetted the appetite for the recipe.  A lot of recipe books don't do this which I feel is a nice touch and also makes you want to pick it up more and try out some of those "fiesta" recipes.I learned a lot too.  I had never heard of tamales in corn husks, adobe sauce, masa, and many others.  Again, making you want to try them.Lastly, the pictures were very nice and recipe directions were thorough so that you could only mess up by not following them.This is a great recipe plus book!
