“uncertain taco newbie” is quite the put down apparently.

perhaps this would have gone over better if my photo had included the struggle between incredulity and humor that danced across the proprieter’s face as he heard the question.

did you at least like my USPS rant?

no, it’s not really funny at all. putting other people down in the name of trying to show how ‘authentic’ you are is really, really tacky. and tiresome. but then again, that’s what seems to be the focus of this blog as of late.

should’ve ended it with the puppy. everybody loves puppies!

seriously though, you don’t think it’s even a little bit funny that they asked if the place accepted credit cards? or that they can’t read menus? really? granted, i do admire their sense of adventure for setting foot inside in the first place.

ps. don’t all the photos in the post look hastily taken?

Very nice post, right up until the end. Is it really necessary to use your local news site to call people out as taco newbs, complete with hastily-taken, high stalker-weirdo factor photograph?

When ordering at La Gallinita, ask for “a la cocina”, and instead of chopped carne asada, you get the whole cut of skirt/flank/whatever laid out over the taco.
