Cinco de Mayo Los Angeles 2012 - May 2nd, 2012

This year, (and by year, I mean more specifically WEEK) I'm a very happy camper. Not only does my birthday fall on the celebratory Cinco de Mayo, it's on a Saturday this year and so is the Kentucky Derby. Can a girl ask for more? Yes, as long as you don't let me ask for any more tequila - we know how that ends. So it's with great pleasure that I've compiled a list of great venues to celebreate Cinco de "Maren," I mean "Mayo" at, and there is no shortage of specials either. Have a drink for the Battle of Puebla, the beatiful horses and for me, and remember to party responsibly!
