Little southern grocery with a snack shack in back.
Came in for a bite while waiting for a friend to finish tidying up around his house. was greeted by the owner and the help as I walked in and was directed to the rear of the store for victuals. a pleasant woman helped me navigate the menus (separate for on a plate / ala carte.) I settled on Bistek de Mexicano and found a seat.
Chips, salsa, other salsa, and a beverage while waiting briefly for a plate of beans, rice, and toppings: a sizzly platter of seasoned beefs and peppers and onions accompanied by a basket of flour tortillas.
The food was abundant and delicious, plenty to satisfy me and some left for Reg when he finally made it down town. After attending to some of life's silliness we picked up two small sacks of 'authentic' baked goods on the way out and bid the proprietor good night.
Note to self: mexican coca cola pairs well with the cuisine. read more
