We had dinner at Tamayo. That is a delicious place. I had sopa de tortilla garnished with avocado, cilantro and tortilla strips with just the perfect hint of spice. It was fabulous. Then I had quesadillas surtidas made with queso oaxaca, roasted poblano chiles, tomatillo salsa and garnished with crema fresca. I thought I had died and gone to heaven or some other equivalent. And the wine ... oh, the wine. It was a Spanish Tempranillo that was just divine. Divine wine. Some photos for your drooling pleasure:
Sorry, it was so yummy that I had several bites before I thought to take a picture.
Jennifer had grilled mahi mahi with huitlacoche sauce and potato-poblano puree. I have to go back sometime and order that fish. I had a couple of bites and it was amazing. The sauce had so many different flavors -- slightly spicy, tangy, sweet and peppery all at once. Oh man, my mouth is watering.
After dinner we walked a few blocks to the theatre district and saw Girls Only. What an entertaining show! It was part play, part variety show and part improv with a little home video and some puppets thrown in. It was all about girl stuff, from childhood diaries to bras to pantyhose to tampons to purses to hormones. It was in a small theatre and the actresses did a lot of interacting with the audience. We laughed so much! (And there was more wine, although not as good as the Tempranillo.)
I think our next Girls' Night will be a game night or something resembling a game night. Our last game night evolved into a laughing, talking night. Do you see a theme here?
