Back to our regularly scheduled programming

Wow. And that's Midnight. Will definitely heed the anal leakage warning and put on my pampers before I read.

In other news, I dined at the bar at La Palapa West last night (6th Ave & Washington Pl.). Drinks were great. They've got these Mexico City style beer cocktails that are really interesting: beer, lime juice, hotsauce. For dinner, we had empanadas, salad with hearts of palm and avacado, chicken and pork tacos, green tomatillo rice and vegetarian refried pinto beans. It was great eating at the bar. The bartender comped a bottle of beer, we didn't order a full entree between the two of us, and we got to taste a lot of different things.

The tacos were legit: two corn tortillas and meat topped with a few bits of chopped white onions and served with a slice of lime. The chicken was this pulled, juicy mess that was soaked in a savory red mole sauce. Next time I go I'm going to try the fish tacos.

This is actually the second California style Mexican joint I've been to in the past few weeks. The other one was Florencia 13 on Sullivan Street. That place was solid, too. Great margaritas, flautas and SoCal style burritos.
