The taquito is a flauta with a Napoleonic Complex.

Pretty sure I would’ve had the ship kicked out of me by a squad or would’ve been shot or tased. Agree completely. No way I could’ve kept my cool.

I got tased once. First date no less. She only got stranger. Needless to say, we dated for a while.

Ok, HASMSP, need input from anyone who has been to Myrtle Beach in recent years. Was thinking about going, mix of golf and vacation. But I am hearing from some that MB has gotten really run down in recent years and that Hilton Head would be better place for us to go.

Any thoughts on this from folks in the know? Feel free to PM me. Looked at the Caribbean, but half the place is still rebuilding, from what I hear.

By this afternoon I will dare to power-rank the Mexican food delivery systems.

I use Uber eats in Atlanta.

Worked with a Guatemalan crew at Jason’s Deli back in the day. Once a month they’d bring homemade tamales for lunch.

damn they were delicious. I’m still searching for a tamale that compares.

If you ever slide into Zwolle, LA make sure you get some Zwolle Tomales. Fantastic Mexican food device.

Please explain what you mean by taquito.

And for the record... I like tamales, but I at least understand someone not liking them. When not done well, they have way too thick of a masa/hominy wrapping and not enough of a filling, and I can understand thinking they’re too dry.

Ok, a bad, dry tamale I can understand not liking as well.

Never done Myrtle Beach but Hilton Head is nice, albeit you pay more for the niceties.

Mildly related.
If you are ever driving through Central Louisiana right around a mealtime near Alexandria get off the main interstate and go about 5 miles west. To the famous Tunks Cypress Inn. Be forewarned, if you order the crawfish you’re going to get the crawfish!

The galvez and san luis are the top ones along Seawall, I guess. Neither are terribly expensive, but I can’t think of a hotel that isn’t across the street from the beach except for that big one way down at the end of Stewart beach. Look into a house rental in Pirates Beach or Jamaica Beach. Or stay at Pier 21 hotel in the Strand and drive to Stewart Beach.

Tunks is solid. Great suggestion.

Echarito?? Is that Spanish for a virgin’s naked behind? Because if so, it should be way higher.

Went to Myrtle Beach for a conference two Summers ago, and it was alright. Think we stayed at the Marriott, which was pretty nice and had a nice beach (well groomed, lots of chairs/umbrellas, etc...). The town itself does seem to be a little dated, but there were some nicer areas. Driving through Myrtle Beach is a bit of a whip since there's about 4,000 stoplights. I've also never seen so much miniature golf in my entire life. Seemed like there were 5 courses on every block. We mostly stayed at the resort, outside of a couple of golf outings, so I can't really speak to activities outside of the resort. There are A LOT of people from the Northeast (NY, Pennsylvania, etc...) out there, though. Apparently that's a popular spot for them. We went to Gulf Shores last Summer and I think I liked that a little better. Hilton Head would be much nicer than Myrtle, but obviously more expensive.

Thanks.

Been years, and I did note that the "beachfront" ones I saw were actually across a busy street.

Is there a beach beyond the seawall accessible by foot? I was probably about 7 the last time I was down there...
