  • I was always curious as to what sort of visual extravaganza I would be treated to entering the virtual world of the 3D bar and restaurant. Security always seems somewhat excessive on the outside and there always seems something going on inside, which is either a VIP list too exclusive to be able to touch, or simply a scam to appear popular. In any event this is the slightly upper class twin to La Chucheria next door which do a nice duo act.

    This is worth checking out if you are in the area and want somewhere, which attracts a mixed crowd rather than the normal roster of tourists and professional friends.
