So much for eating healthy.... we had a mini RS get together last night at this New West taco place and I stuffed down this huge plate of tacos. Man I don't even know why I didn't stop at the 4th one cuz in reality I was already full. NOPE chinaman cant leave till I clean the plate, never waste food so keep stuffing my face.
3 dollars a taco, come on! that's like the best deal in Vancouver man |

Used to go there for their daily specials, pretty good deal although if I was searching out Mexican I’d probably go elsewhere.
Dry January got me thirsty for a frosty modello..

At a certain point, I was worried about getting rug pulled as the chargeback period is ending soon. I also saw a post they only have operational costs for 2 years.
Buyers beware, if they close you lose $$$
