I would like to say goodbye to all my friends.
Apparently I have died and gone to heaven. I don't remember dying, but I guess I have.

Ever since moving to PA, good Mexican food has been hard to come by.

On a whim my wife and I stopped at a place while we were driving home tonight. A complete hole in the wall. After being seated we found out they do not even have a liquor license. Crap!

So we placed our order. Once our waiter was done taking the order he offered us a complementary margarita. Oh hell yes!

Our food comes and in all honesty I have not had Mexican this good since Mexico.

Here is the kicker... The free margaritas... We're bottomless. Once our glasses were down to half full, an angel came by with a copper pitcher and filled them up.

So to all my friends here... I will miss you all, but do not be sad. For I have gone to a better place!!!

4. wow, I am jealous. I'm a San Diego native living in northern Virginia --
and while there are plenty of Mexican restaurants around, they all seem to cater to a very dull palate and a good meal is a fluke.

I hope you enjoy heaven!

9. Yeah... Silly iPhone.
It loves autocorrections. Even though you typed an actual word, it assumes you typed a contraction.

Were = We're
Hell = He'll
Its = It's

For the record... We were wearing pants.

10. Such good food
Edited on Sun Oct-16-11 09:45 AM by Glassunion
My wife had a dish called "Camarones A La Diablo" it was so very good. Sauteed shrimp in a quite hot sauce with peppers, onions, celery, pineapples and cilantro drizzled with a touch of vinegar and honey.

I had a dish called "Arrachera Enchipotlada" which was a skirt steak butterflied and marinated in red wine chipotle adobe oil and garlic. It came garnished with an avocado and cilantro paste. Topped with a spicy chipotle sauce. It was served with a side of rice and beans(my favorite)

I got the short end of the stick and watched my drinking. My wife on the other hand... She ended up a bit tipsy.

8. Sounds like an encounter with the Mezcal Gods.
I had a conversation with them once in the '70s, but was pulled back by a good woman. So many questions left unanswered.
