On Cinco de Mayo, I have to think that if an American fast food chain bastardised French cuisine the way “O’Taco’s” does for taco culture (chicken cordon bleu nuggets? Raclette?) there would have been a serious diplomatic incident. https://t.co/UVuhYm2JV8

Just a reminder that if you're celebrating Cinco de Mayo tonight, you can claim a free $15 Lyft credit through the Washington Regional Alcohol Program's SoberRide service. Grab the code here after 3 p.m. Instructions and T&Cs are on the website: https://t.co/H8grYScrDM

Had a flashback to the days when Town Tavern's Cinco de Mayo parties featured a live burro wearing a serape on the bar's 18th Street patio, and anyone wearing a sombrero got a half-price drink. (No, really, there's a photo in this 2014 Post story: https://t.co/yB6WJDMbTT )
