A Hearty Mexican Meal

New Year’s Day and it was hair-of-the-dog time, with a few glasses of vino at Brewerkz. We then wandered along next door to Café Iguana to tuck into some hearty Mexican fare to soak up all our New Year’s booze.

I love Café Iguana with its funky latin music and fantastic margharita menu (see Macho Margharitas), gives you a real feel of being on holiday. Today we weren’t quite up for tackling the tequila, so we turned straight to the food section and ordered up some Beef Burritos, smothered in the carne de puerco en chile verde (pork green chile stew).

They were exactly what the doctor ordered – filling and delicious, the shredded steak and rice providing plenty of bulk to soak up the festive season’s excess of alcohol.

So that’s it, another festive season over… need to find another excuse to overindulge in food and drink…
