Why would you want Mexican food before noon on a Sunday?



Why would you want Mexican food?



It's actually one of my favorites. I like it far better than Italian.

It really does just take some getting used to. Like in Argentina, everyone usually started at 8am, then everything is closed from 1-4 except restaurants and cafes. They're back usually from 4-10 though.

So essentially most people work 8-10 every day, just a split. I HATE SPLIT SHIFTS. Just sayin'.



Are you from Argentina?



Both parents, visited throughout childhood, lived there for a year, my first kid was born there actually. So not technically FROM there, but pretty close. My entire family is there except for my parents and we kids.

if they are an authentic mexican restaurant it might be because they probably do business like they do in mexico....in alot of towns most places shut down for a few hours in the afternoon. This time is called the "siesta" which is where the stereotype of "siestas" and sleep and/or lazy mexican/hispanic people come from. What most people dont know is that alot of places stay open really late in mexico as well til like 11-12 or even later. At least thats what my sister experienced when she did a study abroad in Mexico.





This is what his sister was doing in Mexico for her "studies."



which one is your sister and can you post more pics ?

There's some delight in ale and wine,
And some in girls with ankles fine,
But my delight, yes, always mine,
Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.
