i love eating at my dive bars

my usual spot isn't open yet, so i decided to wander to another one. get here and the daily special is a beer and a brat for four bucks, can't beat that with a stick. nothing like holding down a bar stool by yourself at this time of day.

Tacos are generally about 80 cents and you can get all kinds. They come with a tray of all kinds of things you can add.

People eat at all times of the day and night, sometimes a little, sometimes a lot.

Enjoy, fizzgig!

have to order another beer to hit the card minimum, i guess that's a hardship i'll just have to bear.

there are few things i love more than tacos, i think i pay a buck and a quarter at the place across from work. i am overdue for a trip there.

Out here in the desert, I've found better food in hole in the wall places that don't serve alcohol.

I think it varies widely by region. I do know that some places are franchise city unless you do eat at a bar.

each one had a special that they were the only ones who did that one.
but everyone had half a dozen or more that they did.
it was great, sigh.

I do love bar food, they can experiment and see what works.
