Chicken mole is good
Chicken mole is good. Mole, in Mexican, simply means sauce. But what a sauce it is. This is one version in a sea of quite possibly thousands. Put it on the table next to some corn, rice, salsas, avocado and/or crumbly cheese, and a big ol’ pile of warm tortillas. Always with a pile of…

Brisket birria tacos
This is a little something that won’t get a mention on a quick-and-easy Old El Paso authentic-Mexican-at-home shelf pack. This is the real McCoy, or the Mexican worded version thereof.

Miss Margarita Mexican Cantina, Byron Bay (part 2)… and film review “Gravity”
Self thought it has been a while since I have returned to my favourite Mexi-loco bar type restaurant-y haunt in Byron Bay. Also, Jennee (due to various unforeseen factors) was 0-3 on her attempts to be swooned by the taste of cheap eats, a punchy mojito and the service of fine looking bohemian-esque barmen. The…

Miss Margaritas Cantina, Byron Bay
Aaah, back to ol’ Byron town for dinner. A town that has disappointed me so much of late with it over priced and under quality food service providers. There should be a department to police the service of shit food at exuberant prices, but I guess they would end up corrupted and in the back…
