    The service on the bar was good, the fries very good and the burger itself okay.

    The crowd is quite young (college age) and there were quite a few attractive girls, too. It got very full until around 11, when we left.
    Greetings Everyone,

    I am please to report that the building's hugh 10 ton rooftop A / C unit was fully serviced on Wednesday and is now pumping tons of cool air.

    In fact, it's so powerful that when we left the unit on to test it we inadverently turned the bar into a meat locker.

    Thanks,

    Jackson

    I get the feeling that before long this place will be pumping. Nice job so far, Jefe.

    A Great Fucking Burger

    Dropped by this afternoon to catch some NFL games and have a bite to eat. And I've got to say, that was a great fucking burger.

    Personally, I think that completely remodeling a 4, 000 SF facility, including a new kitchen, a handicapped bathroom, a 12 meter long bar, all new electrical and redecorating everything in less than 7 weeks was a commendable achievement.

    Anyway, the place looks great, and we opened to a full house.

    I'd like to invite everyone to come by and check the place out.

    El Alamo Palermo.

    Ave Cordoba 5267.

    -

    Open 4 pm to 4 am daily.

    It's in Palermo Viejo, near the corner of Godoy Cruz.

    FYI, of course we're closed on the 24th and the 25th for Christmas.

    Thanks,

    Jackson.

    FYI, next week we start work on the rooftop terrace, which will include a covered bar, tables with umbrellas, lots of plants and of course HDTV for the sports enthusiasts.
    4pm. 4am:

    You may want to open at 2:30pm instead of 4pm this Sunday because the N. F. L games start at 3:00pm Local time, at least most of them do.

    I'm sure you guys already knew that though .

    Cold is Cool!

    Regarding the fire escape, the building is a "purpose-built" concrete structure, which means that it was originally designed and built to conform to all the fire codes, including 10 ft wide stairways to / from all floors. We also have smoke detectors in the kitchen and the bathrooms, and 6 fire extinguishers on each floor. The building has been inspected by the Fire Inspectors and we have passed all the requirements for the current use.

    Nevertheless, in order to obtain a separate license to operate a live music venue on the 2nd floor, we will be installing a sophisticated central fire detection system with multiple smoke / fire detectors throughout the building, all connected to a central panel in the security office and to the local fire department, plus effecting additional physical modifications such as installing fire-proof ceiling tiles, etc.

    Chill Factor 10 Mr. Zulu!

    The times that I have been to the original Alamo were uncomfortable due to the Lack of air-conditioning and I always sat under the ac at the end of the bar, the locals just don't care or they are accustomed to 100 degree weather. I'm buying an ac unit for my apartment this week. I had 2 15k units at my resto that I could have given you; they were new and they were Surreys. Stolen right off of my roof in December! I was going to put them in my pad but they were 3-phase.

    Anyway, the 48 days in the hole is unbelievable! Fuck, it took X 4 years to re-open!

    I was there last night at midnight and a street walker walked past and sat down with a couple of locals for a bit of champagne so I witnessed the FIRST HOOKER at X!

    You must have used a Paraguayan Labor Force, payed well and planned things out carefully; guess you were there every day sort of like a Supervisor.

    Would like to see it soon.

    Thanks and Good Luck!

    TL.

    P. S. Got a job for me? PR Specialist!

    You know me, I'd do it for free!

    That is exactly correct, and most Argies just don't get it, and I commend you. You'd think Argies would get it since the advent of refrigerated shipping was key to their success, but they don't.

    If you're FOBU and you're looking for Argentine girls who would be interested in your offers of commerce, then you'd be sorely disappointed and quite likely to be slapped in the face.

    Guess I will not be there

    Did you install central air? Today is about 110 degrees! But feels like 122!

    Did they make you build a Fire Escape from the terrace so you can have Live Music, etc?
