Nice to hear Hernandez is still there. Used to be one of our favorite
places. You should also check for Tienda del Charro over in Delevan Inlet
(out past the dog track). It's another Mexican grocery. One thing to get
there is their chips, they bag up their own brand -- the hot is good and the
super-hot can set people on fire.
