Love tacos?  Jersey Joe explores these fun facts about tacos!

THE 411

What: Tacos

Fact: Americanized version of Mexican food

Available: globally

JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:

Tacos are definitely one of my favorite foods.  But, living in the New York City area, it’s actually hard to find a restaurant that serves good ones.  Most, just slap cheap meat on a cheap soft taco and try to sell that off as awesome.  I don’t think so…

The best tacos I’ve ever had are at Nacho Daddy in Las Vegas, Nevada.  They now have 2 locations in Vegas: downtown just off of Fremont Street and another on Las Vegas Blvd.

Where have you had some awesome tacos?  I’d love to know, so I can sample and share!

Does Crystal Pepsi make a good mix with alcohol?  Jersey Joe heads to O’Hara’s Downtown in Jersey City, New Jersey with a taste test challenge!

Crystal Pepsi was originally released after a flashy Super Bowl ad in 1993.  Sales were poor and the beverage was gone in less than a year.  Since then, it has almost gained cult status, and after a social media campaign returned to stores in August for an 8 week run.

THE 411

Name: Crystal Pepsi

What: clear cola reintroduced for a limited time only

Mixed with: rum, vodka, orange vodka

JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:

It’s really great that the Pepsi corporation has brought this classic soft drink back.  Let me know if you find any other great mixes with Crystal Pepsi.  However, you have to act fast… it’s only back on shelves for a limited time only.  It could go back into the vault for another 20 years!

Could the classic TV game show Card Sharks be as popular today as it was in the 1980’s?  Jersey Joe and his friends play a few rounds at the bar!

THE 411

Name: Card Sharks

What: TV game show

Airdates: 1978-1981 (NBC) 1986-1989 (CBS) 1986-1987, 2001 (Syndicated)

JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:

Classic game shows have made a comeback to TV!  This summer ABC debuted new versions of The $100,000 Pyramid, Celebrity Family Feud, To Tell the Truth, and Match Game.  All were well received and scored high ratings during each new episode.  All of these series have been renewed for a second season to air in 2017.  Good call by the ABC executives!

This was certainly fun to play at the bar and really needs to make a TV comeback!
