S's Birthday Dinner with B!

We sat down to dinner with Naughty By Nature's O.P.P blaring over the stereo. Don't get the wrong idea, we love a good NBN song any day - just a little unexpected at a Pan-Latin restaurant. Maybe the typical Sergio Mendez, Girl from Ipanema, song was a bit too typical? Maybe they wanted to shake it up a bit; our only thought was that this might turn into a club at any minute!

So we ordered the following:
Guac Tipico w/Lime Cilantro & Shaved Red Onion - $11
Ensalada Verde w/Manchego & Papaya Ginger Vinaigrette - $8
Bacon Wrapped Dates - $7
Yellow Tail w/Asian Pear & Citrus Jalapeno Dressing - $16
Pollo al Carbon - $19

B made a money menu choice by ordering the Guac - the shaved red onion was just the right amount. Who seriously wants onion breath? even if we weren't kissing any boys last night.
Also, the Pollo al Carbon, as the main course, was super moist and full of flavor. It usually comes with potatoes but they were nice enough to switch it for cauliflower, delicious but covered in butter.

So the Bacon wrapped dates were a suggestion by someone off of FourSquare and we will not be reordering them. Actually, a good portion of the menu has bacon listed as an ingredient to the dish. If you're a bacon lover - you'll totally enjoy, if not - stick with the Ensalada Verde for your app or main - it's enough for either.

Agua Dulce - excellent space, Tanteo tequila, good bar scene, food - let's just say you won't be seeing us dining there again :-(
TimeOut Magazine review - not nice
