It doesnt have to be extremely fancy, but more lively and stylish !!!!

Fair warning. If they're not bothered by that sort of thing, never mind. Tue Oct 03 21:50:28 -0700 2006 1920182 13169 Andrew P. 1 1920255 It seems la palapa is winning, but which location, or does it make a difference? I should add that Im looking to spend around 100 for 3 with drinks, is this doable? Tue Oct 03 22:06:12 -0700 2006 1920182 43844 Food4Ever 1 1922780 Can anyone help with this?
