The 3 tequila lunch is dying in Mexico

Remember the 3 martini lunch from the 1960's?

According to this article from Reuters, Power Omeletes kill Mexico's boozy business lunch. Mexico's mid-day business dinner with cocktails is evolving into a more efficient, non-alcoholic breakfast.

I've seen a move to more breakfast meetings in Mexico.

They are more efficient and focused, much shorter,less expensive, no alcohol is involved and it's a great way to start the business day.
