Tio Flaco Tacos.
Tortillas made per order, mesquite grilled asada. Corn or flour tortillas. Taco, mulita, or quesdilla. Solid, not as good as Tire Shop or Los Poblanos/Salon Shop. Tortillas are a little thin not rustic like the aforementioned.
Still damn good, would love it if I was in the neighborhood.
Oh and they have on fountain…ORANGE BANG!!!
Friends GF has never had ramen. Hit up Shin Sen Gumi. Last time I was here was over 7 years ago! This locations broth was completely bland and watery. $60 mistake. A package of Shin Raymun with egg and random ingredients would have been more tasty. Should have went to Kitakata.
Had a solid lunch at Connie & Ted’s today. Rhode island clam chowder (very good), grilled calamari (good but one note), and then the blondie (freakin awesome). Lunch ran about 35 a person–a little high for a meal where the best thing was a blondie with ice cream.
Last day with my guest from Osaka and she wanted to try Mexican seafood. First thought, and a good one, lunch at Coni’Seafood. Shrimp ceviche and snook. The shrimp in the ceviche tasted sweet and fresh. The snook as good as ever, and those salty sautéed onions are so dang addictive. Delicious. Love their chips served with spicy salsa verde as well.
I’m sure you’ve noticed that Japanese have gotten a little more daring on spice levels. But compared to other Asian countries, they’re still pretty timid.
Verlaine’s “food” was so bad, it was easily one of the worst meals we’ve had in the last 3 - 4 years easily (along with Bone Kettle). And we went there so excited to try it.
