<p>The reason you want to go to Chachos is for the Tacos. I understand that people want a variety but the bottom line is GO FOR THE SPECIALTY TACOS and don&#8217;t bother ordering the ordinary Asada, Pollo, or Al Pastor.</p>
<p>Tapique, Hawaiianos are my favorite among the ten different Chachos special  tacos . Those willing to have the special tacos with all the extras will be rewarded with a taste like no other. Open until 3am for those folks who are hanging out at the Cardiff Lounge.</p>
<p>Mariachi and other happy hour entertainment is a common occurrence on Fridays.</p>
<p>These aren&#8217;t cheap tacos but well worth the price if you are willing to pay for the experience rarely tasted north of the Mexican border.</p>

<p>I am always looking for new opportunities to navigate through the short sale process.  Short sales continue to be a viable option for many homeowners in Silicon Valley who are looking for alternatives to foreclosure. A recent comment and subsequent announcement by the Treasury in the next couple of weeks may help to facilitate a higher success rate.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) will offer incentives to mortgage servicers and borrowers, along with secondary investors, to pursue a short sale or a deed in lieu of property, according to Laurie Maggiano, the chief of the Homeowner Preservation Office at the Treasury.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
