I have another new favorite restaurant. Surprise! But this one you have to make your reservation weeks in advance, which hasn’t been my style since Minetta Tavern. Not a huge fan of planning my dinners three weeks in advance, so who knows when I’ll actually get to go back. But anyway. It’s La Esquina and it’s Mexican, but not the Mexican you know… we had veal tongue tacos, for one… and they were delicious. The restaurant is located in the basement of a little Mexican cafe and you need that reservation to get downstairs and they are STRICT about it. So make a rez because downstairs it is so cool! I should have taken more pictures. Which, by the way has been the story of my life lately. I forgot my memory card for the second time this week and it was totally frustrating! I have no excuse for La Esquina, though, because as you can see my memory card was there.
Hmm. This week has been weird. Just feeling weird, ya know? But the past two nights I went to outdoor shows and they were lovely. First, The National at the Prospect Park Bandshell and second, The Wailin Jennys at Madison Square Park. Excellent and excellent. And I got to see a lot of people I really like. So life is good. And I’m looking forward to tons more things coming up too. I’ll just have to remember to bring my memory card.
I had a really great thought about a comment to make on this post, but I forgot it… no memory card. ;-)
That’s a really nice shot, though! Candles, wine… what’s on the plate?
Ok on the plate were tacquitos… with some sort of meat but I don’t remember! I need to go back.
