I have to agree with the people who mentioned the second-hand smoke problem in Cooks, depending on the day, sometimes you can hardly breath in there, but no matter what day it is you'll leave with your clothes smelling of smoke similar to as if you've been to a bar. The dangerous aspect of Cooks has mostly to do with aggressive sellers and the gang bangers that hangout there. There's even an indie rap label selling there. On the positive side, being a Mexican-American I like that about half of the vendors there speak Spanish.
