Around Algodones there are many places you can eat. Some street vendors just sell fish or shrimp tacos in the dust (many roads are unpaved). Or you can try some of the local restaurants. The photo shows one of the better restaurants where you get to sit down and be served. It has semi-outdoor seating, and it's constantly filled. I didn't try and don't remember its name. I only bought a local beer to cool down under the hot sun.
