doesn't El Jefe mean "the boss?" did i make my first spanglish joke with the headline? |
The other location gets some pretty serious rave reviews for its Mexican-Panamanian fusion. Read about owner Onishka Camarena here. Look you can get your computer fixed with my man Abdo next door than saddle over to El Jeffe for some killer nachos.
Speaking of which...were you aware that nachos were invented in 1943? By someone named Ignacio "Nacho" Anaya?
Look it up. S'all true.

Hope their food is better than their spelling.
If I see the word "fusion" used in a restaurant review, I know to stay far, far away.
we hear you steve. and yet, without fusion, would Tex ever have met Mex?
I'm also big fan of the Jerk Chicken Lo Mein from Da Bamboo down the 'Bush.
Also, what does this have to do with Alicia Boyd? Stay focused, please.
the neighborhood would be SO boring without her. in fact...it has become very boring anyhow, wouldn't you agree? the other day i saw a couple in University of Iowa sweatshirts walking their labradoodle and sipping iced coffees while discussing a new yorker cover. (the one with four panels of computer history, each with the same cord plugged into the wall over 60 years of innovation - yeah, I subscribe)
Since I wrote to the PLG listserv circa 2007 complaining about the lack of brie in the neighborhood I will keep my own counsel for fear of feeling like a hypocrite.
ever typed "brie" into the urban dictionary? good golly the U.D. makes me feel O.L.D.
Fascinating. Definition #7 may help bring us back to Alicia Boyd. In the eighties one of my mom's go to appetizers to bring to parties was brie wrapped in phyllo dough. I will share the U.D. definition with her and see what she makes of it.
