No bonus points, alas. http://paladarrestaurant.com/menus-drinks.htm Tue Jun 26 18:30:50 -0700 2007 2697252 13722 small h 1 2698039 *swoon* I love Micheladas. I've even considered naming my first-born daughter Michelada. (The second will be named Jim Beam.) I have to confess that I just googled this and haven't tried myself, but Mercadito in the east village (and maybe Mercadito Grove in the w.v.) have them, as does Rosa Mexicana. The Lincoln Ctr Rosa does kind of bland ones. I haven't had them at the union square location. Tue Jun 26 21:58:04 -0700 2007 2697252 64215 cimui 1 2699080 What a great question! I've always relied on Cafe Habana on Prince in NoLiTa though you have to fight the crowds to get one. No outdoor seating, either. Such a great refreshment in heat like this... Wed Jun 27 08:39:47 -0700 2007 2697252 49384 ardnaxela 2 2699167 Yeah, the heat is what has me craving one. I admit the crowds at Habana put me off a little. Maybe I'll try El Maguey Y La Tuna... Wed Jun 27 08:56:46 -0700 2007 2699080 10681 piccola 1 2699122 habana's is great. for less, hassle, no wait, no attitude, but a more hole-in-wall yet homey no-frills atmosphere... they'll make you a good one at family run El Maguey Y La Tuna.

Last time it took plenty of sipping plus 2 extra Tecates to dilute it enough to drink it - way too much Tabasco. Both have outdoor seating.
