Sangria Tapas Cafe- 401 South Lafayette, Royal Oak. They have tons of stuff going on all night!

Don't forget, we are lucky enough to have Mexicantown nearby, head down there for some really authentic food and celebrating!
Even if Cinco de Mayo isn't as big of a holiday in most of Mexico as it tends to be here, go stuff your face with enchiladas, fried ice cream, and Margaritas, I know I plan on it! If anyone sees the most interesting man in the world, please send him my way.
And just because I'm in a festive, Mexican mood now, enjoy:
Stay thirsty my friends.
