A tale of two Mexican restaurants
We ate our first Chicago dinner at Topolobampo. It was so delicious. Lisa had a three-mole sampler, and one of the recipes was three hundred years old, the very chatty waiter told us. I had a classic sampler of tasty bite things and some good pinto beans. We waited in line for about 25 minutes to eat here. I had a tasty microbrewed beer from Mexico, and Lisa had a margarita. She had homemade vanilla bean ice cream with goat-milk-caramel topping. Quite expensive, all told. But delicious.
Last night, we went to Garcia's, in Lincoln Square, before we went to see a concert at the Old Town Folk School. My combo cost $11, and I had two Especial Modelo beers. We saw about six cops eating dinner there, and many families. It was like a giant room with papercuts hanging from the ceiling. For dessert, we had flan that was quite good.
