El Super Burrito

While some Mexican food restaurants have fancy and romantic names like El Farrolito or Taqueria Cancun, the people at El Super Burrito said, ‘œFuck that! Let’s have our name tell people exactly what we do; we make big motherfucking burritos. That’s what we do!’ It’d be like a clothing store

Club 65

The sole reason I went to Club 65 the other night was to find out whether or not a certain man existed.  Apparently more of a fixture at the bar than a patron, ‘œThe General’, as he’s called, is rumored to be an ancient one eyed creature, with great big
