Greetings from the part-time expat in Cabo! We escaped the Indiana winter for a few weeks of sun and sand in San Jose del Cabo. So far, the weather has been perfect every day, but I’m really not writing to brag to my midwestern or east coast (or anywhere else that might be freezing right now) friends. This post is to once again talk about food and fun!
When we visit SJD, we have a goal of trying to see all our local and fellow expat friends, if possible. We also try to visit one new restaurant each trip, but sometimes visit more than one. This trip, we found a super fun restaurant in downtown San Jose del Cabo. Eddie’s Tequila Tacos and Beer, located right behind the fire station on Calle Licenciado Benito Juárez Adriana, is a great place for food and fun.
We were greeted by Eddie himself, who welcomed us with an Eddie’s logo sticker for our vehicle. He took the time to find the Indiana/Purdue game on the big screen, and we enjoyed it while eating a delicious burger and fries, because you know, once a Hoosier (or Boilermaker), always a Hoosier! They have a full bar and a huge menu, with basics like burgers and hot dogs, but also traditional Mexican fare.
While we delighted in the low-key vibe of a Friday night at Eddie’s, there are other opportunities for fun and festivities. Saturday afternoon is the time for Gringo Bingo, where Americans and Canadians gather for bingo and good times. I believe there are even some tequila shots being poured straight from the bottle into mouths of bingo players, if you choose to participate. The Sunday morning of the USA vs. Canada Olympic hockey game, Eddie opened at 6:00 am for a viewing party and served breakfast.
Lots of occasions for a good time at Eddie’s, for travelers and for expats alike. Stop by and visit them and check out their merch; I’m sporting two new t-shirts this week!
