All of these are parked right in front of the Mexican restaurant we ate at. A Mexican restaurant which featured soft lighting, wood everything, and exactly zero Mexicans on staff. Yep, that’s Mill Creek...

Camera doesn’t show it, but that 4Runner is matte tan. Looked really good.

Never eat at a Mexican restaurant that Mexicans don't go to.

Why do you need [ethnicity] to cook [ethnicity] food?

You have to check out Cafe Veloce or there's a real good Mexican joint near me.

Because they do it best, usually family recipes and techniques passed down through generations. Real Mexican restaurants are always better than fake ones.

You’re misunderstanding what’s happening. There’s nothing Mexican, culinary-wise or anything, about this place.

Ah yes. I thought so. Not bad but not in any way authentic.

Like a Cuban cigar made in Taiwan. Probably not the same.

Note: I know nothing of cigars, Ive never smoked. Just making convo....I miss Mexican food

Considering Taiwan does not have Cuba’s climate and environment for growing tobacco, you’re probably right.

Their brunch was incredible. But sprinkling cilantro on eggs benedict... not so authentic.

Was just weird because we got invited out for mexican food (which I admittedly don’t like as much as most people, but a good fajita is the shit), and we walk into this place. I ordered the Bacon Benedict.

I know of one Tercel that works at a business near me, come to think of it. It’s in great shape too. 4x4 wagon.

My area is probably even weirder. It’s a mix of nice new cars and tons of weird old jalops. Lots of wagons, too. So many wagons.

Also, don’t forget there’s the Whole Foods right there, too.

It’s like how in a nearby town (very much like this one) contains all WASPs and had an Asian restaurant. I went in there (the food wasn’t bad) and was greeted by a bunch of white people wearing this awful Chinese cultural hat for birthday pictures. Good god....and I would be ashamed to eat there again.

Texans are known for their history of good decision making, like the Alamo and Confederacy

The Battle of the Alamo was pivotal in the success of the latter Battle of San Jacinto. Without the reduction in numbers caused by the favorable kill ratio inflicted by the fort’s defenders, the surprise attack would not have been successful.

As for our part in the Confederacy, yeah, we fucked up there.

The food was subpar, but they actually listened when I said I wanted less salt. The slight reason why you don't like to go to a Mexican restaurant applies to me in the case of Panda Express. I refuse to go in the grounds I would view it as sacrilegious to myself and my own culture
