No idea what's for dinner tonight, maybe leftover pizza I ordered yesterday. Not going shopping until the weekend. Had such a lovely lovely vacay in San Antone!
Here is the foodie review :
I had crispy tacos from Rosario's - REAL shells not the fakey prefabs - but the best tacos I had came from a street vendor. Beef chunks topped with grilled onions and cilantro, squeeze of lime and homemade hot sauce on soft corn tortillas. We had nachos and watermelon margaritas at La Margarita in the Mercado. Service bad, margarita good.
We tried breakfast tacos and beef tacos from Taco Haven which got great reviews on the web but we weren't impressed. Fake taco shells on the beef tacos. They do make homemade corn tortillas for the breakfast tacos but for some reason they just weren't all that good. Really thick.
Birthday dinner was at Landry's on the riverwalk. Very nice slow service - in a good way - DH said it was as close to eating in Venice as we were going to get. Had crawfish etoufee.
Hmmm.. have I missed anything? We ate at a Bakery cafe that I don't remember the name of and I had something really good and different - it was a spinach salad sandwich, and it's just like it sounds. Spinach leaves, hard boiled egg slices, crispy bacon, onion, and dressing all on soft thick fresh bakery bread. That is something I will be trying to duplicate at home.
I had four tiny baked potatoes served with margarine, s&p and Heinz 57 sauce. The potatoes were the last ones in the bag, the runts of a 5 pound sack. They turned out very well, just like a normal potato only smaller. I wonder if this could be a new food fad for all the foodie hipsters here in DC where "small plates" are the current thing First add the Heinz 57 with an artistic drizzle on the plate. Then add a couple of small leaves of something green and colorful upon which the tiny potato is placed. Then don't slice it all the way through, but just partially and into the cut place a very small piece of truffle or squid or whatever Then charge $35 for it
(I love reading the food section and the restaurant reviews in the Washington Post)
Alton Brown's Meatloaf and a pot of Navy beans....
