    Burros Longos 'Mimi' (Calle 26 / No Reeleccion)

    I know Longos has been mentioned in other threads but they seem to refer to a place over by Bryan's on the east side- not sure exactly where. I'm not sure if this is a 2nd location from the same owner, or totally unrelated- maybe some one 'in the know' can confirm. But anyway, this review refers...

    Status of AeroMexico Flights???

    Hello, I have been looking at flights for the end of February from Vegas to Penasco, and the prices had stayed stable when I started checking back in October, but starting 2 or 3 weeks ago they just disappeared. Now when I search, no flights show up at all. I believe the route was originally...

    Latest posting from Peñasco Recreation

    Hey Russ, do you have a higher resolution scan of that black and white picture? Or the website where it cam from? It looks amazing and I'd love to print out a large print to hang up somewhere. Thanks!

    November Heat Wave

    Hey gang, can anyone report what the weather looks like today? The wife and I are planning on coming down after work, and of course its cloudy and cold in Nogales this morning. I knew from the forecast that it was gonna cool down in Penasco this weekend, but hopefully the temps won't fall too...

    ¡Hasta la vista! to cane sugar in Mexican Coke

    I've lived/worked in Mexico for 10 years and have heard more times than I can count how Coke in the U.S. was clearly inferior to Mexican Coke. But I rarely drink pop, and when I do, I drink Dr. Pepper ;) So I thought it was just subconscious nostalgia maybe because its cooler to drink out of...

    Why are AeroMexico one-way flights so expensive??

    My family is planning to visit from New York in February- the plan is to visit Vegas for a few days then take the new AeroMexico flight to spend a few days in Peñasco. The round trip flight (Thu-Sun) comes out at $111+$166=$277 total. Sounded perfect... BUT... the Vegas flight gets in only 1:45...

    Calle 13 & 12 - paving

    Thanks for the update Roberto. I had seen Calle 13 in July just after work started and then in Septemebr and it looked as if almost no progress had been made. Hopefully the final stages will go more quickly? I still wonder why they didn't wait a few months and do this project during the down...

    Beautiful Weather Wekend

    I work in Nogales, Mexico and have been going to Pescadito here for over a year. It is awesome, and is a tribute to the motto: "find one thing to do, and do it well." They just do shrimp, fish, and marlin, batter it, and give you tons of fresh veggies & salsas. For 26 pesos apiece, you get a...

    Recommendation for Birthday Cake? (Pasteleria)

    Its around 13 pesos to a dollar right now, but most places will receive your dollars at between 12-12.50. So 150 pesos is probably like 12-13 dollars. I didn't seem high at all to me, but that's a gringo perspective. My wife is Mexican and they are used to non-tourist, non-border prices. So they...

    Al Capone's

    Per recommendations of many, went to Capone's with my wife and her family Sat night for the fight. QUICK COMMENTS: -directions: just take Benito Juarez toward the Malecon, make a left on Fremont, goes down maybe a mile or so, make a right on Sinaloa, and it will be down a few blocks on the...

    Bar/Restaurant with NFL Sunday Ticket?

    Wow, thanks for the confirmation- some of the previous posts made recommendations but didn't seem 100% sure that they had Sunday Ticket. I will check out Wrecked and/or Latitude on my next trip (hopefully) this fall!

    Bar/Restaurant with NFL Sunday Ticket?

    I was kinda hungover from the fight sat night (Capone's was great BTW), so I wasn't keen on driving around at 9am Sun morning looking for a place with Sunday ticket, so I just stayed at the condo. The Sea was pretty full for the Mexican holiday, but the wired internet in the resort was actually...

    Recommendation for Birthday Cake? (Pasteleria)

    Thanks to all for the advice! I stopped at Irma's and got the 3 leches since it was closest to my stopoff at Lucas for some chicken! The price seemed a tad high (150 pesos) to my wife's family, but they are from Navojoa in southern Sonora and used to cheaper prices for everything. But it was...

    Bar/Restaurant with NFL Sunday Ticket?

    Hello, I'm not sure if its even possible for a business in Mexico to legally have Sunday Ticket- and even if it is possible it may not be financially wise to get it (since for a bar/restaurant I believe it is a significant cost). But I figured I'd ask just in case some place might have it. Now...

    Best Place to Watch Boxing?

    Will be down from the 12th-16th and am pretty stoked for Mayweather-Canelo on Saturday nite! I know a bunch of places show the fights, but I'd like to hear opinions. The most important things: 1) Views: enough TVs to have a good view no matter where you sit, preferably with an HD feed 2)...

    New Crossing Structure

    I live in Nogales AZ and cross the border every day- they have had informal 'outgoing' (leaving US to MEX) inspections for a few years, mainly asking people if they have any arms or more than $10k in cash. Also, they have been informally scanning Mexican national tourist visas, I imagine so they...

    Netflix Connection?

    Unfortunately, most of the streaming content providers (netflix, hulu, amazon, apple, itunes.) negotiate licensing rights to each country on an individual basis. That means that your account has to 'match' the country where you are trying to access the content; i.e. if you sign up for Netflix in...

    Am I missing something about the AeroMexico flights? Why so expensive?

    Just checked a Thursday to Sunday trip from Vegas to Penasco for February. I have family from New York who are going to Vegas on Valentine's weekend and would love to spend a few days in Vegas and then a few in Peñasco. They have their flights to and from Vegas already, and they head home late...
