Where exactly is this bar located? I miss the days of Papaguayos and especially when it was run by Ophelia. After she passed, her family made an attempt to run the place and they failed miserably.

Hi Bbond,

I am moving back to Texas next week. Haven't been to Nuevo Laredo in a long time. Is Emiianos open? How about any of the other bars downtown like Jorochos? Any recommendations on where...

About the only thing going on in Boystown is Bar Pullman. This bar has been open ever since I started going to Nuevo Laredo back in 2006, while almost all others have closed down. I know the owner,...

I have had two encounters of trouble in the many years I have been down there. The first one was in a popular bar downtown that has since closed where some local (bad guy) kicked me in the ass as I...

Bbond is the best at giving expert advice regarding Nuevo Laredo. I have been down there 4 times this year. Spent time both downtown and at Boystown without any problems. My advice if you are going...

Thanks for the info Bbond. I appreciate it. What makes going to and from the zona dangerous exactly? Thanks.

Bbond / Others:

I am moving back to San Antonio Sept 1 and was wondering if you could give me the lowdown on what's happening over there in Nuevo Laredo. Heard there were several shootouts on the...

Bbond, are Emilianos or Jorrochos open?

Hi Bbond:

Any update on the status of the new Montera opening up in the zona de tolerencia?

There are hardly any bars open downtown. There are bad boys all over the city fully armed. They are robbing people with Texas plates at stop lights called clandestine checkpoints. I know this from...

Well, I am aware more than ever now and choose to stay away. My first clue should have been when my friend from there got killed a few years back. Thanks.

Anytime Drama. Nuevo Laredo used to be a lot of fun when Papaguayos and the bars La Mina, Jorrochos and Montera were open. Now it is nothing but a hell hole. Acuna is not as bad but nothing much...

One of the girls that works in a bar in BT drove over to my hotel to see me last Saturday night. She was delayed by an hour due to a shootout near the airport. While in a taxi, I spotted at least 4...

Was down at BT Nuevo this past weekend. Someone got shot right outside one of the bars at 7 am. You go at your own risk.

Laura used to be good friends with a blond girl that I used to date years ago in Nuevo Laredo by the name of Cecelia. They used to regularly hang out in Montera. Would you happen to know...

It is good to hear that the police and military have stepped up their presence. I don't ever want to see another checkpoint like I saw outside of BT several weeks ago.

The Hotel Meson Del Rey is the best hotel by the bridge. Quiet. Nice and they take credit cards. Give it a shot and you will see.

Is his name Javier by any chance. His has a working girl as a girlfriend there and will bum and extort every dime out of you that he can. Kind of tall and skinny. He is a coke addict. You have to...

I told you I was stopped at a checkpoint by BT. These aren't locals. I didn't have to pay because I was not in a taxi but a personal vehicle driven by a guy that works at one of the BT bars.

Bbond,

I read an article where the military patrolling there in NL was cutback so the bad guys are taking control of the city. Holding checkpoints and robbing tourists. This may explain that night...

Made a right turn in a taxi out of the Zona Friday night and at the 1st stoplight were about 20 dudes with various weaponry checking cars and God knows what else. Taxi driver rolled down his window,...

Thanks Bbond. I plan on coming down late December or early January. If I see Laura in Emilianos, I will ask if she know where Cecelia is. I'll say Hello, if I see you down there. Take care.

Bbond,

I used to see a girl named Cecelia who worked in Montera quite a bit. She was a blond and used to hang out with the notorious Laura. Would you happen to know where she is? It has been about...

Thanks for the clarification Bbond. On another note, I haven't heard from my friend Chente. Remember him?

I don't know why anybody would stay at this shitty hotel. I have stayed there where the heaters didn't work or there was no cold water. This place sucks. Plus it is near a dangerous alley. Stay at...
