New Restaurant Alert

Stopped by Casa Blanka Imports in Mesilla recently. They are building a new building on their lot and I thought they were just expanding their mexican import business but they plan to open a restaurant, modeled after The Pink Store in Palomas, called “El Parian de Mesilla”. When: don’t expect it to open until November or after. How cool is this!
