MX Trip # 59 Dinner at MiGusto ( Sunday )

We went to Cocula for supper and to listen to the Mariachi band that plays at the MiGusto restaurant every Sunday evening.

Cocula is a industrial and farming town located on hwy 80 which is a main thorough fare to the coast so it does see a lot of traffic. It seemed odd that Villa Corona was out of fuel and Cocula did not even have much of a line at the two Pemex that we seen in town. Cocula also has a Wal-Mart but it goes by another name and it is just called the Bodega. Carroll and I will visit the store on Thursday to pick up some item before we head north. 

Fred and Donna are leaving tomorrow so we are taking them to Cocula which is 21 km from Villa Corona because they have never been there and they do like Mariachi music. The band plays for 1 1/2 hours and that is my limit for Mariachi  music. Of course we were the only Gringos in the restaurant so the Master of Ceremonies   came to our table to get our names and ask where we were from so he could introduce us to the crowd.

Fred is multi- lingual so it good to have him decipher the menu and to make sure the waitress understands our order.  The owner  of the restaurant suspected we were camping at Villa Corona so he came over to welcome us and would have bought us a Margarita but none of us drink that " crap ".  We were advised by the guide at the brewery in Tequila that most Margaritas  are made with the cheapest Tequila they make and it usually gives you headache. I have had that headache several years ago I don't need a relapse.

The music was good and the food was plentiful as we all had to get a "doggy bag ". We all had pawns, which not a surprise when you get a plate full of prawns for less than 10.00. Cheers
