I...I can still remember my first time at El Charro. It was 1964 with my Cousin ED Allred. He was the city boy and i was in town to be impressed, so he took me there, at the time the high lite of Mesa. I was still in high school and I had a green chili burro. I was soooo impressed. <BR/>I was not a regular eating out person at the time so perhaps I was more impressed than i would be today, but Yes, yes, yes, I agree.<BR/>rossrosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02920680035465082675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11480853.post-46658861993353295542008-06-05T20:06:00.000-07:002008-06-05T20:06:00.000-07:00Jane, I think we should go to lunch every week and...Jane, I think we should go to lunch every week and eat all that stuff. Maybe in August...<BR/><BR/>Love that show, Molly!<BR/><BR/>Jolene and Pam, I'm putting your tiny and delicious tacos on my to-do list, and Cravings<BR/><BR/>Welcome, frumpy luv. I am anxiously waiting for word on your tupperware<BR/><BR/>Alyson, who knows? I get to NYC every year or two, maybe we can venture from the city for a day trip. I've heard the Taco Bells in Connecticut are the best anywhere.<BR/><BR/>Joe, I know what you mean. I have to climb up on the dining room buffet to play my guiter unmolested. I'll start practicing for the reunion tour. What did we play again?Beeswaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418719062005209787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11480853.post-41447367849601691042008-06-05T13:36:00.000-07:002008-06-05T13:36:00.000-07:00Wow, Kelly, such flattery!

I appreciate the props, though, and it's really too bad more folks didn't come out to the festival. <BR/><BR/>As for our "band", we really do need to host a reunion tour with, at the very least, the remaining local members (who knows where those other fellows have ended up? - Jeremy was the other guy's name, by the way.) Nowadays, I cherish any time I can get alone with my guitar, especially without the "little hands" wanting to play at the same time!Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618118588672044699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11480853.post-72918065212382117502008-06-04T15:41:00.000-07:002008-06-04T15:41:00.000-07:00Yum, you are making me hungry with all this food t...Yum, you are making me hungry with all this food talk. I must confess I have not had the good fortune of dining at El Charro. I guess I am missing out. I did try a new Mexican place called Cravings in Queen Creek that was rather tasty. <BR/>I will have to put your Mexi pick on my must try list.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08966199777498178100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11480853.post-20099080305050383862008-06-04T06:56:00.000-07:002008-06-04T06:56:00.000-07:00Great post!

My dad grew up in AZ and so did my mom-in-law.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, if you're looking for good mexican in Connecticut (not likely :-), head to Puerto Vallarta in Avon or West Hartford. It's one of the rare good mexican places in New England. Since there aren't many Mexicans here, there aren't many good mexican places. Oh well. In a crunch, I head to Taco Bell. By the way, there aren't many of those here either!Alyson | New England Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16209837924378793507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11480853.post-64533011890106535562008-06-03T17:55:00.000-07:002008-06-03T17:55:00.000-07:00Kind-but-emo waiter has me in huge smiles as do ma...Kind-but-emo waiter has me in huge smiles as do many of your lines =).Janellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12896034734129842054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11480853.post-8511446416982973612008-06-03T14:31:00.000-07:002008-06-03T14:31:00.000-07:00El Charro is in my old stomping grounds.

We just went there on our anniversary after a temple session for old times sake. They have changed the menu -they used to have a board that was in English on one half and spanish on the other. On the Spanish side you could order trip and brains etc.. but not on the English side. They have taken all of that off of the menu but they still have the best tacos around. I love the carne asada tacos, they are tiny and delicious and only a buck a piece. My only advice is to go on a nice day and eat outside.Jolenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17023445148371673154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11480853.post-20478041068803198982008-06-03T14:17:00.000-07:002008-06-03T14:17:00.000-07:00There is a show on the food network called Diners,...There is a show on the food network called Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, and we were watching it last night and they went to a Mexican place in San Diego, it looked mighty tasty, and they have homemade tortillas fresh daily.
