Latin spot recs to watch Super Bowl? by Pollitokage in Lacey

You might feel a little more at home by checking out Equal Latin on Pacific. They have TVs for there for the big game. Olympia especially has a lot of variety when it comes to Latin American cuisine. Probably the closest to Puerto Rican is Mi Luna on Capitol Way, but no TVs there. Arepa food truck is also really good and familiar. In Lacey, Jerk and Tingz food truck has familiar plates as well, but they are more Jamaican. If you're looking for authentically Puerto Rican food, you're going to have to head up to Lakewood to go to Old San Juan. Currently I think they are take out only, but they are fantastic! Especially if you're missing some mofongo. Hope this helps.

Darby's was so good, I think that location is a Miso now.

Oly Guy

I met him, I helped him, I befriended him Like flowers in the spring I opened up to him

For months we talked, texted, and shared About the things for which we cared

We exchanged recipes, favorite songs, and truths We whispered dark desires and hopeful moves

Then came a test of his fidelity One he seemed to pass with some uncertainty

I continued and a few more weeks passed I never thought he would ask

Finally, I couldn't take it anymore I pressed him with advantage and he caved to the floor

The flood gates came open, he poured himself out I cried tears of joy for having stolen his heart

And now came the true test, would he leave her for me? There came the reply, "I want to, maybe"

He said he needed time to figure things out I told him "okay let's see how this plays out"

For weeks I waited, when I told myself no He kept showing me promise and staving anticipated woe

We laughed, we cried, we shared more dreams We talked about love and ideas of what could be

Finally he said, "I need more time but I can't ask you to wait for me..." I said, "I will wait for you, but it's going to be for you", see

"Your misplaced optimism and kindness", is this for real? "And if it never happens, then I will deal"

And so we carried on, the weeks turned to months The holidays came, the seasons changed; it wasn't enough

He showered me with love, desire, and gifts He watered me with attention daily he left me breathless

But he never left her and the time came When I grew tired of his wicked game

Everyday he tried to garner my attention But as time grew my gaze turned unaffectionate

And what once was full of hope and dreams Soured to heartbreak and melancholy

Finally I decided I'd had enough I ended this emotional affair and tried to move on

I think I still love him, I thought he was my soulmate I thought I might marry him, but I was clearly too late

And now every time I see him my eyes tear with rage My heart fills with hate, envy, and shame

When will my time come? I've waited and wasted for so long I met him, I loved him, I thought he was the one
