Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - This has been one of the most contentious U.S. presidential election cycles in recent history. We have been bombarded on television, radio and of course social media. Families are split, friends are no longer talking and everyone is stressed out. The culmination of way too many months of campaigning will be coming to a head soon and a new president is a cause for celebration.
The people at Taste Restaurant in Puerto Vallarta would like to extend their invitation to some peace, well, maybe a bit of shouting and nail biting, during their Election Night Extravaganza on November 8, 2016, which runs from 7 pm to 12 am. There will be two big movie screens indoors with AC to keep you cool and there will be one screen pool side.
"Presidential elections only come around every four years, but whether you are a political junkie or just a dabbler, they provide brilliant viewing that usually lasts deep into the night," says Laura Gelezunas, Party Sponsor and Boardwalk Realty Sales Agent. "This election cycle has shown us the pompous, the controversial and more silly pundits than can be counted - all turn into comedy gold. So why watch the coverage alone when you can watch it with friends?"
Taste has a new dinner menu and all party affiliations are invited to indulge in their special deal of Three Tastes for only $299 pesos. You can choose your sample plates from the entire collection. Here are just a few of the dishes:
