And here I was thinking of May 4, 2014, when we started Cambodia Expats Online. 9 years old today!

Never cared much about Viva. Maybe Later is my go-to restaurant. OK, it is Californian Mexican food, but it is pretty good.
I don;t know what your interests are or if you are travelling with family?

Is the museum worth a visit?
Scarier than malaria.

At the turn of the 20th century, Mexico was introduced to mayonnaise.anka wrote: ↑Fri May 05, 2023 12:03 pmgetting hungry now.. while learning about Cinco De Mayo being a short-lived victory for Mexicans. the general who led the "Battle of Puebla" died shortly after and the French came back and defeated them at the Second Battle.Big Daikon wrote: ↑Fri May 05, 2023 11:51 am I made chicken quesadillas yesterday.

And they just loved it. They couldn’t make mayonnaise quick enough.
Little known fact, the Titanic had a large vat of mayonnaise that was going to go to Mexico.
Now when the Titanic sunk, and the mayonnaise went with it, the Mexicans were devastated.
So devastated that they did the only logical thing they could do: make a holiday to commemorate that tragic event.
Know what they called that holiday?
Cinco de Mayo.

Actually in Mexico, Cinco de Mayo (5th of May) was never really a holiday.
Only La Raza (the race) in the US and their agenda of taking back ‘stolen land’ (ie lost in the war, of course originally stolen from the native Mayans and Aztecs) pushed the date as a holiday. In order to push their agenda. Returning most of the Southwest and West Coast back to Mexico. Or at least to make the US a Mexican colony through mass immigration.
My opinions, of course.
