This was a special meal as it was the last trip with a great team-mate who is retiring, Glenn.
- Great atmosphere with even a little pick-up/take-out window on the side of the building
- Glenn ordered the Sautéed Strips of Filet Mignon
- Filet strips with onions and peppers in Espanola sauce
- He seemed to enjoy it along with the black bean rice
- I ordered the Cuban sampler of The Criollo
- Fried pork chunks, beef in creole sauce, tamale, ham croquette (looked like a fried cheese stick), plantains (yum, yum), yuca and black bean soup
- We topped off the meal with a little Cuban coffee
- As Glenn put it, this is coffee on steroids
- A very good meal and just right for the locale we are in
- My favorites were the fried pork chunks and the Cuban coffee (I may be up a while tonight)
- Rating
- 8.5
- Dinner companion: 10
Thanks for the memories Glenn!
