Apparently, voting for Best of Omaha 2012 begins in just three days. Wow, that was quick.

Anyway, I was wondering...am I the only person who is absolutely flabbergasted that La Mesa has won Best Mexican Restaurant eight years in a row?! Omaha has so many amazing Mexican restaurants! Why Le Mesa???? I've eaten at La Mesa and...eh.

I hope this is the year that the streak ends...

I wouldn't necessarily qualify "Best of Omaha" an actual exhaustive city-wide poll of the actual *best*. I consider it more a "we market our voting better than the other guys in this particular category" commendation.

With maybe one or two exceptions I've taken the "Best of Omaha" logo to be a big fat "stay away" warning.

This is still a puzzler, although I agree that mostly it says we get more voters instead of we are actually better.
