FYI… "Mayate" is a derogatory term for a Black person (originally trom Nahuati for a large dark beetle, weaponized like the N-word in English), and "grande" means "big/large." So the phrase crudely translates to "large [N-word]" or "big Black [insult]"

A Black woman was dining at Sirenitas Restaurant Mexican & Central American Food when two staff members called her "Myyate grande"…which means large N word in Spanish. The staff reportedly laughed, assuming she wouldn't understand the slur. She handled it with composure instead of reacting in anger—left briefly to breathe and regroup, then returned to calmly demand an apology. One woman feigned ignorance, but the situation escalated when TikTok was mentioned, leaving the younger dark-haired staffer visibly "cooked" and aware of potential viral fallout. Backstory… This lady called me "Myyate grande" which means large N*gger in Spanish. My fathers first language is Spanish and taught me do not ever let somebody call me this word.! was looking at a menu and they laughed in my face because they thought I did not know what they were saying. I left the restaurant quietly, took a moment to breathe and went back and quietly asked for an apology. She proceeded to act like she did not know what I was talking about. The dark haired, younger girl knew she was cooked when I mentioned TikTok.
