Casa Bonita--Spanish for "what the f@ck!?"

Yes, this is the restaurant from South Park. The one of such hedonistic splendor that it drives Cartman to carry out an elaborate end-of-the-world hoax in order to lure Butters down into a bomb shelter, effectively taking his then-vacant spot at Kyle's birthday party (pictured below).



Yesterday, Lauren, Peg, and I traveled to Lakewood, Colorado, just outside of Denver, and discovered this outlandish Tex-Mex eatery right square in the middle of a very nondescript strip mall (Casa Bonita is flanked by a Dollar Tree and a Hollywood Video, though the creators of South Park portray it flanked by a 97 Cent Store and a Peter's Pit Stop). For a mere $14, one can purchase an All-You-Can-Eat Beef Deluxe Dinner, which consists of Grade F beef, stale tortillas, soggy tacos, and a generous helping of liquid cheese. But wait! If you think you're getting screwed, think again!

How about All-You-Can-Eat Sopapillas? How about daring cliff divers, wild gunfights, Black Bart's Cave, and a man in a gorilla suit!? Still not sold? Well, me neither, but it's off the bucket list!
