I played Puerto Rico tonight. I didn't like it nearly as much as Power Grid, which we played last week. I might have to get a copy of that, though how something with fake money and bidding can be so engaging I don't quite understand. The game design is just so elegant.

I've played both Puerto Rico and Powergrid a lot. I suspect the optimal strategy for Powergrid is relatively apparent, and it looses out in its fun once everyone realizes it.

My current favorite though is Tigris and Euphrates.
