Ranchito del Agave Shuttered For Serving Alcohol to Minors
It’s 23 Skiddoo for the Tequila Baron of 9th Ave – apparently Ranchito del Agave, who holds honors for buffet excellence dating back to the Brooks Era, was busted by the fuzz last week! A confidential source tipped us off to the sign and its big neon closure. Illegal alcohol sales? Anyone ever get offered something off the menu? Until they reopen, you can get your Mex on at Rinconcito Mexicano or La Montanita, not too far away on 8th.
UPDATE: We finally got to swing by the still-shuttered Ranchito, and a copy of the affadavit taped to the door (mostly torn off by unhappy Ranchitadores) states several incidents where a minor with the police auxiliary was served alcohol. Ouch!

I know, right? These “food trucks” are in violation of parking regulations by running their heaters with the keys in the ignition and engines not running!

This reminds me–Certe was shuttered yesterday at lunch. I walked past and yellow tape was blocking the entrance, some official-looking signs were on the door, and a dude was telling people they would be open again tomorrow (today).

Don’t forget Tulcingo del Valle on 10th btw. 46th and 47th. Excellent.

That’s a bit of a haul from this area, but if we’re going up that way, I swear by Tehuitzingo on 10th and 46th/48th. http://midtownlunch.com/2011/03/01/tehuitzingo-is-arguably-the-best-mexican-well-get-in-midtown/

Yay NYPD! Crack down on those kids!
It’s not like there are other crimes going on or anything.
