"Los Barriles" is a great spot for late night food, drinks, and entertainment. By drinks, I mean beer and "Yuscaran", and by food I mean the tiny little "boquitas" that accompany the purchase of aforementioned drinks. You can also buy a plate of meat, but most people try to get their steak's worth in boquitas. The entertainment is provided by numerous nomad groups that roam the streets of the area know as "Los Barriles" within Villa Adela. This area is referred to as "Los Barriles" because of all the places that roll out the metal barrels to grill meat on. We chilled at my father's favorite place, simply known as "Tia Delsy".
They keep the empty beer bottles on the table and count them once you're done. This keeps drunk people from arguing that they drank less and should pay less than what they really consumed.
This guy was so excited about this group he had to jump out of his seat and start dancing
Yuscaran is a potent alcoholic drink made from sugar cane. Someone at a table a few feet away from us poured a little out on the ground, a ritual known in L.A. as "For the homies [that have passed]", and it seemed to sizzle and release fumes as it made contact with the ground
Sopa de caracol... Hey!
Get your shine on!
Go from whack
To all that... and a bag of plantain chips!
You will inevitably walk out of this place with blurry vision!
