Ranked
The 210 has been given a major redemption from last week’s results in Yelp’s top 100 list for taco spots. According to new data by Clever, San Antonio ranked No. 3 in The Best Taco Cities in America list. Not quite as high as we think SATX should be, but we’ll take it. 🌮
The Emily Morgan Hotel ranked No. 4 in the 2022 list of most haunted hotels by Hotel.com. Once the site of a medical center (including a defunct psychiatric ward and morgue), the hotel is ranked as the most “demonic” of the group. 👻 (MySA)

THE WRAP
Today’s issue was written by Iván.
Editor’s pick: Here’s a fun fact — I am friends with Alex Wolff (ahem, but only by association). See, the Hereditary actor (and Naked Brother’s Band member, for those 90s kids that remember) made his directorial debut at the San Antonio Film Festival in 2019 with his film “The Cat and The Moon.” A friend of mine interned for the festival, met the actor, and exchanged digits. So basically, that means that Alex and I are tight, right?
