Options abound for those looking to celebrate Cinco de Mayo

For some, spring is essentially bookended by St. Patrick’s Day and Cinco de Mayo. If you’re looking for cheap drinks, great eats or a bit of actual culture, there’s plenty of options on Thursday, May 5, and this coming weekend.

Over on our sister blog, Wayward, Abbie Stutzer put together a round-up of performances, parties and drink specials. Manny’s (207 Southwest Boulevard) will be celebrating for the next three days (May 5-7) with live music from Trio Aztlan and $5 margaritas and appetizers. On Thursday and Friday, from 7 to 8 p.m., the Cuervo Group will be holding a tequila sampling.
