Martin Carrera's La Veracruzana restaurant is something of a Northampton institution, offering many a wonderfully tasty take on staples of Mexican cuisine. The Enchiladas Suizas—a creamy and cheesy delight—are a particularly fine choice, but the large menu offers everything from tamales to horchata, and all at a price that won't break the bank.
