    That is a sad indictment of Pennsylvania Mexican cuisine then.

      I never thought of that but you might be right!

          Yeah, compared to any place in Canada, Cafe Rio is as good as Mexican food gets.

          Taco Time's a big hit up there.

            Their crispy bean burrito is good stuff.

              Cafe Rio is fast food and as far as fast food goes, Cafe Rio is pretty dang good.

                  Sorry Indy, but I'm pretty spoiled living in New Mexico where a green chile cheeseburger stand is on every corner. Every time I go to Utah my family wants to drag me to Cafe Rio or Bajio's and I accompany them with no great fervor. The food is OK but nothing I will write home about. Now if you will excuse me, I have a plate of tamales and chile con carne waiting.

                    You just want to make the rest of us jealous

                    I may be small, but I'm slow.

                      Received this email from the EQP:

                      I just called to make sure it was open and despite what the web site says it is not open yet. They are hoping to be open on Friday, if they don't make it by Friday they will not open until after Christmas.

                        You should respond calling for a special fast to help get it open.

                          Make sure you make up a story about Cafe Rio paying 10% of their receipts as tithin and how they employ so many members, etc., etc. And talk a lot about it reminding you of "home".

                          U-mos outside of Utah are worse than U-mos here.

                            Every time I get these things, I forward them to my wife's inbox as punishment for her giving my email address to people in the ward.

                            The funny thing about this email is that the to: field had people in the EQ, but he had also had about 8 addresses in the cc: field.

                            Why are you cc'ing people on this type of email?

                            I wonder if anyone was bcc'd without my knowing?

                              I like Chipotle, and they whip up a very good guacamole.
