Like the bowling alley, the diner also seems to be frozen in time. Chilequilles is listed under Spanish breakfast, indeed one scary fattening breakfast ^^;; It’s basically deep fried corn tortilla chips […]

The cake moist and flavoredly soaked, the bottom layer has chocolate flakes and nuts. The cream puffs was a bit stale though. But […]
