I ordered two tacos…one was a pot belly
taco..and the other was a blackened camaron taco…both filled with lots of
sliced peppers…red onions….chopped cilantro…small cubed tomatoes…lemon juice…yummy!
Torie’s choice of Tamales intrigued me. I may return just to try this entrée. Three Mexico City style tamales topped with
your choice of carne asada,* carnitas or pollo asado, refried beans, tomatillo
salsa and queso fresco.
Everyone
else pretty much ordered some type of specialty taco as I did.
Neal,
however, ordered the Taste of the Street - three street tacos, choice of carne
asada, pollo asado or carnitas in mini corn tortillas topped with white onion,
cilantro. Served with street corn, jicama mango slaw and choice of salsa. His was able to mix and match the choices...he decided on two carna asada and one carnitas. He and Torie were sharing. Great idea!
Jonah,
of course, ordered his cheese quesadilla.
That boy never has to look at a menu. Or go through the process of a
decision.
Then we did share two dessert – sopappillas and
churros…nice and hot and delicious. Four
square sopappillas were served with three different sauces…lime…chocolate and
caramel. I thought it was unique to
eat square sopappillas but I decided to
research and the term “sopappilla” means fried Mexican pastry, typically square
eaten with honey and sugar as a bread. I
learn something new every day. That’s
exactly what these were. Perfect!
The churros were served in large chunk sizes
with a vanilla cream cheese sauce. They
were so tasty I wondered if they weren’t fried just before serving…and I should
have asked but I wonder if they were homemade…or at the least never
frozen. Now…that gives me a reason to go
back.
We sat out on the patio…and it was a perfect
evening..with the misters on us. We
talked and laughed…until almost 9:30 p.m.
