Cinco de Mayo at Chevys in South Lake Tahoe

Cinco de Mayo at Chevys in South Lake Tahoe

We had a blast at Chevys for Cinco de Mayo! Originally, I was thinking we stay home and have dinner, but then I realized that it was Cinco de Mayo - so off we went to Chevys in South Lake Tahoe.

It was very festive and very busy. They had these $2 shots that people couldn't resist including us. They were giving out bright beaded necklaces and miniature Corona ponchos for the beer bottles. They were also giving out raffle tickets for prizes.

They even had a margarita drinking contest. So, my cousin, Justin Toa with Useadeal (a daily deal website business), who's visiting us from Seattle I convinced him to enter the contest. They were looking for 11 people for the contest and they had to drink from a child size sippy cup. It was fun watching all the contestants try to drink from a sippy cup. I guess it was a lot harder than expected. I'm sad to say my cousin Justin did not win, but I think he enjoyed it.

The whole restaurant was very lively and very loud. Surprisingly, our little girls had a good time watching all the commotion around us. Towards the end we met a really nice couple from San Diego that sat right next to our table. We really do get people from all over the world visiting Lake Tahoe. Thanks for the drinks, Robin and Mark!

I'm so glad we went out for dinner to celebrate Cinco de Mayo at Chevys in South Lake Tahoe. It really was some good times. It's good to see that others are supporting the local businesses as well.

Cheers everyone!
