My family and I did a day trip from San Diego and MULLME was our first stop. If you are a pop culture, superhero, wresting fan, don't miss this exhibit. Thank you so much!

El Popo Market

Reviewed By kodachrome_photoart

The market was vibrant, colorful and fun. A local shop owner offered us a slice of whiskey soaked coconut and it was so delicious we bought a small chunk to take home. Also had some authentic and tasty Chile rellenos with rice, beans and tortillas. Due to COVID, restaurants took people’s temperatures and had a mat to sanitize shoes. Everyone wore masks as well. Since ours was a quick trip I didn’t get to look around much or buy souvenirs. But maybe next time! Some advice- bring your passport and allow plenty of time to get back to San Diego. The line up to get back through the border is long, slow and tedious. With lots of street vendors and men, women and children dodging traffic to try and sell you something. It took us 3 hours to get back to the border. Make sure to bring extra food, water and money with you. And make sure your gas tank is full.

Stopped in with a few business owners. Didn't know what to expect. It was awesome! The people were friendly, funny, and fun. The entire event was family friendly. The game was a pleasure to watch too. Will visit again soon!
