    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    Manos is pure unadulterated garbage. The only reason is this movie came into being is because a man lost a bet. He then had to write, direct, and star in his own movie. Bonus, is that it's filmed in El Paso Texas.



    Some people consider it the worst movie made. Others consider Birdemic the worst made. You watch and let me know what you decide.

    Watch them. Manos wills it!

    A local hole in the wall Mexican place made some deep fried taco shells for their tacos....It was the first place around here that didnt used boxed tacos. Needless to say I was impressed!

    3 tacos de asada and an asada burrito. Large horchata! :yes:The tacos look a little worse for wear and got a little soggy on the trip home, but still tasted amazing.

    Here's a look inside the burrito:IMG_8029.jpg

    I'd recommend asking for salsa on the side. They're both really good (red and green) but depending on your spicy tolerance, it might be a bit much for you. This place is awesome for that late night craving after being out all night.

    Carnitas Michoacán
    One of my favorite places growing up. It's a chain restaurant but the two other locations I've been to taste a little different. It has affectionately become known as "Greasy Tacos" amongst some friends. Open 24 hours for those late night cravings, but the later you go, the sketchier the neighborhood.

    2 tacos de cabeza and 2 tacos al pastor

    Quesadilla and nachos de asada:
    IMG_8207.jpg
    What you can't see under the quesadilla is a "salad" of lettuce, a slice of tomato and some watery guacamole. Sounds terrible, but it goes great with the quesadilla and tames the salsa a bit.

    They're pretty awesome. Sometimes you have to separate nostalgia from actual good taste, but not in this case. When I get a craving for that spot, nothing else will do. The nachos are the shit. Have to eat them there because they get soggy with so much cheese on the way home.

    Ya I can never order or take home nachos. There used to be this place around school that would make them up and I would have them leave EVERYTHING except the cheese off and on the side. Then when we got home we would add the toppings back on. They had some awesome nacho's not sure what spices they used in the meat but it just had a great flavor.

    Those taco's I would eat the heck out of though. LOVE that style of taco. Wife prefers the crunchy shell texmex type tacos (which also have their place).

    2 times from Subway. NEVER will eat there again. Just smelling that place makes my stomach turn to this day.

    I try a bunch of the food trucks whenever I get a chance. Most are pretty good some are eh. One of the things I miss from when I did a bunch of work out in Cali was some really good fish tacos. Was a little hole in the wall place down from my hotel in Anaheim that I would frequent.

    When I lived in Tx there were many Mexican places to eat...one place near my house mainly had burritos with handmade tortillas. I still miss that place, I also miss the Texas BBQ!
