Myrtis Jewel Painter knows where the party's at: Taco Bell.

The 106-year-old celebrated her birthday in style at her favorite restaurant, Taco Bell, on Sunday. Taco Bell honored Painter by decorating the restaurant for the special occasion.

Painter, bless her heart, downed a taco and an enchilada at the party. While I personally would have gone with the #5 (Nacho Supremo and Tacos), I'm not here to judge.

Any branded birthday experience should be celebrated, especially a Taco Bell brand.

Painter has been a regular at her local Taco Bell in Phoenix, Arizona for eight years, according to AZFamily.

"I think Taco Bell is a good place to come to, I really do," Painter told AZFamily.

Myrtis, I couldn't agree more. Thank you this culinary bit of wisdom.
