There is some mighty big bragging on the soon-to-open Velvet Taco’s website. Due to open in July, they claim:

A new kind of taco is coming. A taco that will change your world. A taco that will change the world.

I can’t wait for the world to change.  I hope it will be one without douchey bars and taco gourmet burger cupcakes. See you at 3012 Henderson Avenue in July.

  4. No cupcakes, and no physical bar … but we’ll have plenty to drink. Velvet Taco will welcome all, morning, noon, and night – even those urban denizens from “douchey bars”.

  8. Brandy, the word is stuck in my head like a song that won’t go away. Give me 24 hours and I’ll have another. Jane, you made my day. Luscious brain.

  9. So the Church’s next to Dickey’s finally bit the dust, huh?

  10. What on earth is wrong with the barbecue at Dickey’s? Is it the lack of cocktails?

    @ 4:24 pm on June 2, 2011

  11. So it’d be OK if the barbecue place in question was named Cockey’s?

    Color me confused…

  12. Charm, that is why we refer to fancy mixed drinks as dicktails. We can’t say cock on our website.

  13. OH NO, somebody raised the bar, now we can’t say dicktails!! When did that happen? How about penistails?

    @ 5:22 pm on June 2, 2011

  14. Oh, that’s logical!
