FOOD!? Somebody mention "food"? Aquí estoy. Presente! Too hungry, busy and tired to philosophize or even be witty. You and Victor D. Sandiego can just be glad I am sending smoke signals that I am alive. And, it is likely the smoke is from frying something on very high heat. Sending you, two, authors warm greetings...and to your respective fans, too.
Thanks for the smoke signals, Elva. They say "where there's smoke, there's fire" - which I take to mean that whatever you are cooking on very high heat will be seasoned with something muy picante. Are you using habaneros? Whatever it is, save a piece for me!
Elva, I for one am so happy to hear the smoke signals, or see them... I mean. And that you're okay despite the high heat and the busy tired, too. Get some good foods, I'm sure you must have some nice places, too!
There's a restaurant here that we go to once in a while that's quite delicious. It's got "vaca" in its name, but I don't quite remember and besides, I don't want the Michelin folks dropping by because then it will get too popular and that always gets my burger brain busted (oops)
Anyway, it's a bit on the spendy side so it's a special occasion kind of place. I really love the little joints. There's one within walking distance that has the salsa made with pineapple. My favorite, yum do de yum yum. I give them more than 3 stars and they let me come in with my dog who usually accompanies me to the pickup, aka para llevar.
Salsa with pineapple, yum! Yes, keep those Michelin people away. You can distract them with a strategically placed baguette. If that doesn't work, perhaps you can train your dog to herd them in the opposite direction. Anyway, happy eating, Victor!
Would love to hear more about the restaurants they give stars to in future posts. And any restaurants you find particularly good, and good value since I agree eating in 3 star restaurants regularly is hard on the pocket book!
