We went to Los Cuates for a lunch date...

We went to Los Cuates for a lunch date and the food was great, as usual.  But this time, there was live music!  We thought there must have been a stage somewhere and we just hadn't seen it before, but NO!  There was a Mariachi group going from table to table taking requests!  I was wondering why they played "Happy Birthday" so many times!  😅

When they came to our table, they asked what we'd like to hear.  I said to surprise me, and they asked "Romantic, upbeat, ?"  I said something upbeat would be great.  They played "Quizás, Quizás, Quizás" and I loved it!  While they were playing I couldn't stop smiling.  I kept watching them play and sing and I thought it would be awkward, but it wasn't.  I was so happy for the rest of the day.

They gave us a card with their name on it.  They are Trio Jalisciense.  They had QR codes to Venmo and CashApp and their Zelle phone number on their cards, which was super smart.  I wanted to tip them and checked the car, but we had no cash, so I Venmo'd them to thank them for their lovely performance.

I got part of La Bamba on video, and as much as I wanted to video them singing to us, I didn't.  It was so up-close that I felt it would be rude or maybe feel weird to them, so I didn't.  If we go there again when they're around, I will definitely ask if it's ok.
