I love coming here, Juan Meat Market “El Gaucho” … even the name sounds fucking cool!! It’s an ethnic (Argentine) outta the way store. Don’t let the fancy schmancy address fool ya … Beverly Hills Dr. … ooh la motherfucking la!! Truth be told, the area is kinda sketchy, lol. Stopped here today (June 17, real time blogging y’all, lol) after work, picked up a shitload of meat, sausages too … everything here is the best, simply the best, not a word of a fucking lie!! Those pigs you see, they even sell them whole, fully cooked (as long as you give a few days notice), sliced and ready to eat for $185. Curious, I asked how many can happily nosh, 20 to 30 was the reply … well I’m having a BIG Q for family, but not for that many people I tell him. Dude says, “that’s ok, we (store employees) can come over and help you eat it”!! LOL, motherfucker cracked me up!! Don’t know about you? But for me having family over means plenty of pre-party planning and shopping … buying food, buying booze. All this while maintaining my regular work schedule too … in fact … working a couple hours extra here&there, ‘case I need to book off a day to recuperate, lol. Hey, as they say, no rest for the wicked!!
