[Chris Craig]

[Strenuus]

Shit, now HCP only has 2 jobs.

Shit, now HCP only has 2 jobs.

That's not funny. He didn't work there, he ate there. Until about six months ago when his wife yelled at him to quit eating so much fast food.

Place closed faster than I'd expect

Sad, but it was a taco shell of what it once was....

Yes, they maintained their fresh tortillas and shells, but the service and price/quality had gone steadily downhill since the mid 90's.

Nah, white people love to bash Taco Bell because they think it gives them Mexican Street Cred. But you look its a bunch of mexican stoners in there all the time eating!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

But yeah, weird I kind of wanted to check out the Taco House last week, its so fucking campy it may be interesting even though the food prob sucked

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

House of Louie closed too. Fuck Chinatown was such a part of growing up for Dim Sum on Sundays.

My SHIT. Been eating those since they opened. I lived in Rockwood when they first started.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Burgerville should buy Taco Time. I like what BV has done with their menu, very local, very fresh.

[THE HCP]

It's all about that La Sirenata life up on 28th and Alberta! They were the first people to move in there before the gentrification. Amazingly authentic FAMILIAS!
