Neatly placed on Sunset Boulevard, Borracho Cantina may hold the most genius happy hour concept in LA. They have it TWICE A DAY from 3pm-6pm & then again from 10pm-1am, for 1/2 food, $5 margaritas and well drinks.

My girlfriends and I grabbed a late bite and a few margarita's last night. I had the veggie taco & spinach and mushroom taco (pictured above) for a grand total of $4. My margarita was $5 so my theory is, if I can get food and a drink for cheaper than valet, I'm down. The tacos were so yummy, I am craving one right now! Our drinks were not that amazing. We ordered skinny margarita's and they came out with triple sec. We sent them back (because we want to be skinny and triple sec makes me turn bright red) and the second tasted as bitter as the bartender probably was re-making them. But any combination of tequila and lime juice and I can typically take down so...

I love mexican and I love not paying mucho $$$ for it so if I am in the area I will go back!

This past Sunday I was invited to go to El Carmen for a type of bartender secret society meeting. It was like church; mingling, small talk, and passionate speaker. But, that little cup of grape juice and a prayer at the end was swapped out for a smooth shot of tequila and a bloody mary like chaser. I love Jesus, and church, so I am not being sacrilegious. The whole time I was just sitting there thinking how similar the two entities were minus their overall goals. BACK TO El C : Every kind of tequila in the free world. A great reputation. Good (cheaper) Mexican food and nice bartenders. A+. I think even Jesus would approve of a good red grapefruit margarita on a warm Sunday afternoon. Don't you?
