I was in 'El Bizmarkitos' last June, in the later evening having tacos, kind of touristy compared to some of the really good mariscos spots down the street, or the taco spot deeper in the colonias.....Always eerie to know you were eating somewhere where an execution occurred, though not the first time.
ReplyDeleteAre you the one that says that you were there 'not that long ago"? They say something of Mex D.F, you went there, Sinaloa, you were there not long ago, tijuana, you were there, dam dude your everywhere...
DeleteNow bismarkitos, you went there too. Kinda touristy. You don't make sense dude, how is a place gonna be kinda touristy? Is it a tourist spot or not, dam dude your full of bull. But it's ok to imagine.
