As seen on South Park!

• Casa Bonita, an institution near Denver, Colorado blends the kitsch of a sprawling indoor theme park with Mexican food, and Ify Nwadiwe (Dropout TV, Um Actually, Maximum Film) is here to learn all about it with me
• The location that everyone knows and loves isn't the original Casa Bonita, which used to have locations in four different states
• The Secret Menu: Edible TV Shows
• I name the winner of the Septemburger $500 giveaway
• The South Park creators buy Casa Bonita and find themselves hemorrhaging money to the tune of $42 million to restore it
• A Yelper desperately tries to convince us that post-renovation Casa Bonita is clean now, and we don't know how good we have it
• "Fine" Dining is now on video! Head on over to my YouTube to watch this episode!
