That is some great work Mike. Too bad they really don't have Coops. That would be worth a drive to Jersey!

Or the Enahilada Machismo.
Remember the rules of the Magnaverse, Coops with Macho Tacos. Bordeaux with an Enchilada Machismo.

Do you think they'd think I'm weird if I called and asked them to mail me a couple of taco wrappers and a take out bag to add to my MPI collection? :lol:

Ha! Very cool Mike! So, I can't get an "Old Dusseldorf" or a "Flagler" beer? ;)

We will apparently be facing some competition from Maui Tacos Waikiki,‎ which is also located at 2233 Kalakaua, but we've got the "Magnum angle" so we should be ok. ;)

I picked the Maui Taco address and phone number for authenticity and because TM mentioned Kalakaua Drive as the location of the estate. Makes sense to me that that address would be used in the show. I figured it would tie in nicely with it's fictional proximity to the estate. Of course there is no Kalakaua Drive, only Kalakaua Ave. in Honolulu.
I really need to get a life.

They should add a special combo to the menu...

Burrito Machismo with a glass of Chateau Duroix Bordeaux 1957.

What price to use I wouldn't know though....
