E.g.:
But because he was tired, or married to a much younger woman, or
overconfident of his ability to escape, Guzman began spending time in
Culiacan and other cities. "Here's a guy who has made hundreds of
millions of dollars in the drug trade, and he's living like a pauper up
in the mountains" [...]
Guzmánhad other weaknesses. "He loves the gourmet food," a D.E.A.
official told me. From time to time, he would be spotted at an elegant
restaurant in Sinaloa or in a neighboring state. The choreography was
always the same. Diners would be startled by a team of gunmen, who would
politely but firmly demand their telephones, promising that they would
be returned at the end of the evening. Chapo and his entourage would
come in and feast on shrimp and steak, then thank the other diners for
their forbearance, return the telephones, pick up the tab for everyone,
and head off into the night.
