I told you to try the <i>pork</i> chimichanga, you fool! And I still maintain that it's the best I've ever had. Or maybe it was the company: we were eating with <a href="http://www.tinypineapple.com/chris/" rel="nofollow">Chris</a> and his charming mother-in-law. I love this place, though, and I've only been there once. I mostly love it because it has a fan-tastic Pee-Wee-Herman-style old motel next to it, with a "garden"/pool area that features multiple oversized cement mushrooms, forest and/or farm animals, and the most pleasantly demonic sign (painted on the side of the Red Iguana) I've ever seen. You just don't see quality kitsch like that very often. It made me happy. No, no, NO! I told you to try the pork chimichanga, you fool! And I still maintain that it’s the best I’ve ever had.
