Bombazo @Nuyorican Cafe

Last night we hit up the Nuyorican Cafe en Viejo San Juan where my Bomba instructor was performing with his group. We mobbed over from Condado to Viejo San Juan and this time I parked in a parking lot because Lisa told me that parking in yellow means  parking in red and one of these days I'm bound to get a ticket.
For $2.50, I don't have to gamble with getting a ticket. Oh did I mention that there are casinos on my block where I stay in Condado? La Concha Casino serves sandwiches along with complementary drinks while you try your luck into timeless abandon and I'm down $20 in case you're asking. Blackjacks my game.

The Bombazo was tight. AC a little too high in the venue. One of my favorite dancers was out there doing his thang.  Michael Jackson meets Bomba con sabor. Ilia showed up, freshly arrived from the Bay. We met Vicky that night who convinced us to stay at the Nuyorican for Salsa,  but not without first visiting Los Cuernitos up the street where we were served guayaba-flavored Puerto Rican-style "Sizurp" or something like that out of plastic shot glasses. All in the name of the grant! We headed back to the Nuyorican for salsa. Be warned: Puerto Rican Salseros ain't no joke! I saw some moves I've never seen before! Step Lively..
